Among the large, diverse set of mammalian long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), long noncoding primary microRNAs (lnc-pri-miRNAs) are those that host miRNAs. Whether lnc-pri-miRNA loci have important ...

PHILADELPHIA -- Researchers long thought that only one strand of a double-stranded microRNA can silence genes. Though recent evidence has challenged that dogma, it's unclear what the other strand does ...

microRNAs (miRNAs) are essential regulators of gene expression in diverse biological processes and disease states. They are short 22-nt noncoding RNAs that bind to mRNA targets via partial base ...

Potential of Field Is Catalyst for Emerging Diagnostic and Therapeutic Strategies As key regulators of gene expression and cellular machinery, microRNAs may be the most significant discovery in ...

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small, non-coding RNA molecules that regulate gene expression by interacting with messenger RNAs (mRNAs) from genes that encode proteins. The aberrant expression of miRNAs has ...

Researchers at New York University's Center for Comparative Functional Genomics and the University of California, Berkeley have used computational analyses to predict a genome-wide map of microRNA ...

The 2024 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was awarded to Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun for their groundbreaking discovery of microRNA and its pivotal role in post-transcriptional gene regulation.

US scientists Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun's Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine recognizes their research into microRNA. American scientists Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun are the latest in a long ...
