[Research Progress on the Role of Small Non-coding RNA in Schistosoma Infection]
Abstract:
Small non-coding RNA controls the expression of target genes and is related with mRNA degradation, chromatin modification and genome stability. Recent studies showed that small non-coding RNA is not only associated with the incidence of schistosomiasis, but also acts as a potential biomarker. In this article, we will review the applications of small non-coding RNA in schistosomiasis diagnosis and its potential role in schistosome development and pathogenesis, in the aim to provide hints for developing detection methods and vaccines for schistosomiasis and for drug development.

Transfer RNA Synthesis
Each of these chemical modifications is carried by a specific enzyme, post-transcription. All of these enzymes have unique base and site-specificity. Methylation, the most common chemical modification, is carried by at least nine different enzymes, with...

Ribosomal RNA Synthesis
Ribosome biogenesis begins with the synthesis of 5S and 45S pre-rRNAs by distinct RNA polymerases. The primary transcripts are extensively processed and modified before they are bound and folded by ribosomal proteins and assembly factors,...
