tRNA Fragments Populations Analysis in Mutants Affecting tRNAs Processing and tRNA Methylation
tRNA fragments (tRFs) are a class of small non-coding RNAs (sncRNAs) derived from tRNAs. tRFs are highly abundant in many cell types including stem cells and cancer cells, and are found in all domains of life.

RNA Interference and Small RNA Analysis [PDF]
Small silencing RNAs have provided powerful reverse genetics tools and have opened new areas of research. This introduction describes the use of RNAi to suppress expression of individual genes for loss-of-function analysis. It also summarizes methods for measuring specific and global changes in small RNA expression, as well as methods to inhibit the ...

Roles of the HEAT repeat proteins Utp10 and Utp20 in 40S ribosome maturation [PDF]
A family of HEAT-repeat containing ribosome synthesis factors was previously identified in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We report the detailed characterization of two of these factors, Utp10 and Utp20, which were initially identified as components of the ...

For several decades, only a limited number of noncoding RNAs, such as ribosomal and transfer RNA, have been studied in any depth. In recent years, additional species of noncoding RNAs have increasingly been discovered. Of these, small RNA species attract particular interest because of their essential roles in processes such as RNA silencing and ...

Small RNAs making a small protein [PDF]
Small RNAs (sRNAs), often called noncoding RNAs, are widespread in all organisms and are used to control diverse cellular processes. A large class of sRNAs is involved in the regulation of gene expression primarily at posttranscriptional levels through base-pairing.

The RNA Polymerase II-associated factor 1 complex represses small-RNA-mediated heterochromatin formation and gene silencing [PDF]
RNAi interference (RNAi) is a highly conserved regulatory mechanism employed by almost all Eukaryotes. With RNAi organisms can modulate the expression of endogenous genes and protect the integrity and identity of their genomes.

MSC-derived exosomes for small RNA delivery in disease treatment: a narrative review [PDF]
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are known for their ability to differentiate and self-renew, playing a critical role in tissue homeostasis and repair. Despite their therapeutic potential, clinical applications of MSCs face challenges, including safety ...

In plants, RNA silencing is a fundamental regulator of gene expression, heterochromatin formation, suppression of transposable elements, and defense against viruses. The sequence specificity of these processes relies on small noncoding RNA (sRNA) molecules.

Challenges of small RNA technology
Plant small RNAs are largely non-coding, regulatory RNAs that act with a sequence-specific binding capacity to regulate target gene expression, either before transcription, a process called transcriptional gene silencing (TGS), or after transcription, a ...

Transfer RNA-derived small RNA: an emerging small non-coding RNA with key roles in cancer
Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) promote protein translation by binding to the corresponding amino acids and transporting them to the ribosome, which is essential in protein translation.
