Primate-specific Long Non-coding RNAs and MicroRNAs
Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are critical regulators of gene expression in essentially all life forms. Long ncRNAs (lncRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) are two important RNA classes possessing regulatory functions. Up to date, many primate-specific ncRNAs have been identified and investigated. Their expression specificity to primate lineage suggests primate-specific roles. It is thus critical to elucid...
متن کاملReply to Backes and Keller: Identification of novel tissue-specific and primate-specific human microRNAs.
We thank Backes and Keller (1) for their comments on our recent publication (2). With regard to the first example in their cluster analysis point, it is great to see that Backes and Keller (1) uncovered more clusters among our reported data, as this provides further support for the nonaccidental nature of these molecules. With regard to the second example, where they did not find a direct overl...
متن کاملIdentification of Tissue-Specific MicroRNAs from Mouse
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a new class of noncoding RNAs, which are encoded as short inverted repeats in the genomes of invertebrates and vertebrates. It is believed that miRNAs are modulators of target mRNA translation and stability, although most target mRNAs remain to be identified. Here we describe the identification of 34 novel miRNAs by tissue-specific cloning of approximately 21-nucleotide R...
متن کاملSpecific microRNAs modulate ES cell-derived neurogenesis
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are recently discovered small non-coding transcripts with a broad spectrum of functions described mostly in invertebrates. As post-transcriptional regulators of gene expression, miRNAs trigger target mRNA degradation or translational repression. While hundreds of miRNAs have been cloned from a variety of mammalian tissues and cells, and multiple mRNA targets have been predict...
متن کاملIdentifying Hedgehog Signaling Specific MicroRNAs in Glioblastomas
Aberrant activation of hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway plays an important role in the development and proliferation of glioblastoma (GBM) cells. However, its mechanism remains unknown. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short non-coding RNA molecules which are involved in the post-transcriptional regulation of genes, and enrolled in signaling transduction network in tumors. This study was designed to inves...
