Evolutionary conservation and functional roles of ncRNA
Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are a class of transcribed RNA molecules without protein-coding potential. They were regarded as transcriptional noise, or the byproduct of genetic information flow from DNA to protein for a long time. However, in recent years, a number of studies have shown that ncRNAs are pervasively transcribed, and most of them show evidence of evolutionary conservation, although le...
متن کاملRegulatory Roles for Long ncRNA and mRNA
Recent advances in high-throughput sequencing technology have identified the transcription of a much larger portion of the genome than previously anticipated. Especially in the context of cancer it has become clear that aberrant transcription of both protein-coding and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are frequent events. The current dogma of RNA function describes mRNA to be responsible for the ...
متن کاملthe effect of functional/notional approach on the proficiency level of efl learners and its evaluation through functional test
in fact, this study focused on the following questions: 1. is there any difference between the effect of functional/notional approach and the structural approaches to language teaching on the proficiency test of efl learners? 2. can a rather innovative language test referred to as "functional test" ge devised so so to measure the proficiency test of efl learners, and thus be as much reliable an...
15 صفحه اولFunctional and evolutionary roles of long repeats in prokaryotes.
Most recently published complete bacterial genomes have revealed unexpectedly high numbers of long strict repeats. In this article we discuss the various functional and evolutionary roles of these repeats, focusing in particular on their role in terms of genome stability, gene transfer, and antigenic variation.
متن کاملncRNA discovery and functional identification via sequence motifs
Non-coding RNAs play regulatory roles in gene expression via establishing stable joint structures with target mRNAs through complementary sequence motifs. Sequence motifs are also important determinants of the structure of ncRNAs. Here we introduce two computational tools that both exploit differential distributions of short sequence motifs in ncRNAs for the purpose of identifying their loci an...
