Deciphering the tRNA-derived small RNAs: origin, development, and future

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2021
Transfer RNA (tRNA)-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs), a novel category of small noncoding RNAs, are enzymatically cleaved from tRNAs. Previous reports have shed some light on the roles of tsRNAs in the development of human diseases.
