lncRNA - Long Non-coding RNAs

10.2K
In humans, more than 80% of the genome gets transcribed. However, only around 2% of the genome codes for proteins. The remaining part produces non-coding RNAs which includes ribosomal RNAs, transfer RNAs, telomerase RNAs, and regulatory RNAs, among other types. A large number of regulatory non-coding RNAs have been classified into two groups depending upon their length – small non-coding RNAs, such as microRNA, which are less than 200 nucleotides in length, and long non-coding RNA...

Three main types of RNA are involved in protein synthesis: messenger RNA (mRNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), and ribosomal RNA (rRNA). These RNAs perform diverse functions and can be broadly classified as protein-coding or non-coding RNA. Non-coding RNAs play important roles in regulating gene expression in response to developmental and environmental changes. Non-coding RNAs in prokaryotes can be manipulated to develop more effective antibacterial drugs for human or animal use.

Area of Science:

  • Molecular Biology
  • Genomics
  • Plant Science

Background:

  • Eukaryotic genomes encode thousands of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) involved in vital biological processes.
  • lncRNAs primarily function in the nucleus, often associated with chromatin, regulating gene expression and genome stability.
  • lncRNAs are increasingly recognized for their role in organizing nuclear domains.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review major types of eukaryotic lncRNAs and their mechanisms of action.
  • To focus on plant lncRNAs, particularly in Arabidopsis thaliana.
  • To describe advances in understanding lncRNA mechanisms, including roles in RNA-dependent DNA methylation and flowering time regulation.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of eukaryotic lncRNAs.
  • Focus on mechanisms of action in plant systems.
  • Examination of lncRNA involvement in epigenetic regulation and developmental timing.

Main Results:

  • lncRNAs are key regulators of gene expression and genome stability.
  • lncRNAs contribute to nuclear domain organization.
  • Specific plant lncRNAs regulate RNA-dependent DNA methylation and flowering time.

Conclusions:

  • lncRNAs are versatile regulators with diverse functions in eukaryotic cells.
  • Plant lncRNAs, exemplified by those in Arabidopsis thaliana, offer critical insights into gene regulation and development.
  • Further research into lncRNA mechanisms will advance our understanding of epigenetics and plant biology.
