• RNA interference — (RNAi) is a mechanism that inhibits gene expression at the stage of translation or by hindering the transcription of specific genes. RNAi targets include RNA from viruses and transposons (significant for some forms of innate immune response), and …   Wikipedia

• RNA-induced transcriptional silencing — (RITS) is a form of RNA interference by which short RNA molecules such as small interfering RNA (siRNA) trigger the downregulation of transcription of a particular gene or genomic region. This is usually accomplished by posttranslational… …   Wikipedia

• Long non-coding RNA — Long noncoding RNAs (long ncRNAs) are generally considered (somewhat arbitrarily) as non protein coding transcripts longer than 200 nucleotides. This limit is due to practical considerations including the separation of RNAs in common experimental …   Wikipedia

• Non-coding RNA — A non coding RNA (ncRNA) is a functional RNA molecule that is not translated into a protein. Less frequently used synonyms are non protein coding RNA (npcRNA), non messenger RNA (nmRNA) and functional RNA (fRNA). The term small RNA (sRNA) is… …   Wikipedia

• Transcription (genetics) — Transcription is the process of creating a complementary RNA copy of a sequence of DNA.[1] Both RNA and DNA are nucleic acids, which use base pairs of nucleotides as a complementary language that can be converted back and forth from DNA to RNA by …   Wikipedia

• Polyadenylation — Typical structure of a mature eukaryotic mRNA Polyadenylation is the addition of a poly(A) tail to an RNA molecule. The poly(A) tail consists of multiple adenosine monophosphates; in other words, it is a stretch of RNA that has only adenine bases …   Wikipedia
