Researchers have discovered the ability of long non-coding RNA (ncRNA), encoded within our genome, to promote gene expression. The researchers believe these long ncRNA molecules may represent so ...

Thousands of unique non-coding RNA (ncRNA) sequences exist within cells. Work from the past decade has altered our perception of ncRNAs from 'junk' transcriptional products to functional ...

They managed to understand a novel function of non-protein coding RNA: the protein synthesis activity of coding genes can be enhanced by the activity of the non-coding one called "antisense." ...

Although originally believed to be non-functional, key roles for non-coding RNA (ncRNA) transcripts in the regulation of gene expression have now been revealed. Here, Wahlestedt provides an ...

Thus, our data suggest that hSATII RNA derived from senescent stromal cells are transferred into surrounding cells through small EVs and function as a SASP-like inflammatory factor in the tumor ...

Non-coding RNAs constitute almost 98% of the human genome. Long non-coding RNA (lnc RNA) is a large class of this family where the RNA sequences are more than 200 nucleotides long and do not ...

A long noncoding RNA whose function was previously unknown turns out to play a vital role in mobilizing the immune response following a bone marrow transplant or solid organ transplantation.

Long intergenic noncoding RNA (lincRNA) is the largest class of these RNAs. “We now know of about 16,000 long noncoding RNAs, about as many as there are protein-coding genes, but we know the functions ...

As the most abundant type of long noncoding RNA in the cardiac cells, CARMN-RNA seems to play a critical role in enhancing the flexibility of blood vessels.

Non-coding RNA molecules play an important role in regulation of various processes in the nucleus, but a defined role in regulation of mitochondrial function has not previously been reported.

The Multitudes of Noncoding RNA The term “noncoding RNA” is a catch-all for sequences in the genome that are transcribed but typically not translated. These molecules, which account for the majority ...

Far from being mere genetic noise, lncRNAs are now recognized as functional in a variety of cellular processes, 1 and are arguably the hottest area of RNA research today.
