Natural antisense transcripts.
Recent years have seen the increasing understanding of the crucial role of RNA in the functioning of the eukaryotic genome. These discoveries, fueled by the achievements of the FANTOM, and later GENCODE and ENCODE consortia, led to the recognition of the important regulatory roles of natural antisense transcripts (NATs) arising from what was previously thought to be 'junk DNA'. Roughly defined ...
متن کاملNATsDB: Natural Antisense Transcripts DataBase
Natural antisense transcripts (NATs) are reverse complementary at least in part to the sequences of other endogenous sense transcripts. Most NATs are transcribed from opposite strands of their sense partners. They regulate sense genes at multiple levels and are implicated in various diseases. Using an improved whole-genome computational pipeline, we identified abundant cis-encoded exon-overlapp...
متن کاملNatural antisense transcripts are co-expressed with sense mRNAs in synaptoneurosomes of adult mouse forebrain.
Natural antisense transcripts and overlapping sense transcripts are expressed in a variety of tissues, including adult mouse brain. Here we show that a subset of mRNA-like sense-antisense transcript pairs are co-expressed within synaptoneurosomes of adult mouse forebrain, a subcellular fraction that is enriched in pinched-off dendritic spines of pyramidal neurons. Several of these pairs involve...
متن کاملNatural antisense transcripts of Trifolium repens dehydrins
The recently described complex nature of some dehydrin-coding sequences in Trifolium repens could explain the considerable variability among transcripts originating from a single gene.1 For some of the sequences the existence of natural antisense transcripts (NAT s), which could form sense-antisense (SAS) pairs, was predicted. The present study demonstrates that cis-natural antisense transcript...
متن کاملWhat are natural antisense transcripts good for?
NATs (natural antisense transcripts) are important regulators of eukaryotic gene expression. Interference between the expression of protein-coding sense transcripts and the corresponding NAT is well documented. In the present review, we focus on an additional, higher-order role of NATs that is currently emerging. The recent discovery of endogenous siRNAs (short interfering RNAs), as well as NAT...
