circRNA, circular RNA; dsRNA, double-stranded RNA; lncRNA, long non-coding RNA; mRNA, messenger RNA; miRNA, microRNA; ncRNA, non-coding RNA; pre-miRNA, precursor ...

Scientists have identified a new RNA molecule that may play a key role in improving survival in cancer patients.

In RNA molecules, the 5′ untranslated region (UTR) is located directly upstream of the start codon and plays a crucial role in post-transcriptional regulation by controlling RNA stability, cellular ...

Northwestern Medicine scientists have discovered that a specific long non-coding RNA activates oncogenic signaling pathways ...

Scientists have found new genetic causes for diabetes in babies—in a part of the genome that has historically been overlooked ...

The expression of genes has to be very carefully controlled by cells; serious problems can arise when genes are expressed in the wrong places, at the wrong times, or at the wrong levels, for some ...

Researchers from the University of Ottawa’s Faculty of Science have achieved a significant breakthrough in the field of enzymology. Three graduate students, namely Noreen Ahmed, Nadine Ahmed, and ...

When a gene produces too much protein, it can have devastating consequences on brain development and function. Patients with an overproduction of protein from the chromodomain helicase DNA binding ...
