Title

THE ROLE OF UNTRANSLATED RNAS IN REGULATION OF GENE EXPRESSION AND DISEASE

Pages

  2190-2202

Abstract

 For 50 years, the term “gene” has been synonymous with regions of the genome encoding mRNAs that are translated into protein. However, recent genome-wide studies have shown that the human genome is pervasively transcribed and produces many thousands of regulatory non-protein-coding RNAs including MicroRNAs, Small Interfering RNAs and Small Nucleolar RNAs, functional molecules that belong to small and long non-coding RNAs. According to recent studies, it is now clear that these RNAs play critical roles as transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulators, and are active in GENE SILENCING and DNA demethylation. Evidence shows that intergenic regions are related with the expression of non-coding RNAs of complex diseases and their application, as a marker for diagnosis and treatment, is useful. These observations emphasize the need to move beyond the confines of protein-coding genes and highlight the fact that continued investigation of non-coding RNA biogenesis and function will be necessary for a comprehensive understanding of human diseases.
