lncRNA - Long Non-coding RNAs02:39

lncRNA - Long Non-coding RNAs

9.6K
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...

Translation

17.3K
Translation is the process of synthesizing proteins from the genetic information carried by messenger RNA (mRNA). Following transcription, it constitutes the final step in the expression of genes. This process is carried out by ribosomes, complexes of protein and specialized RNA molecules. Ribosomes, transfer RNA (tRNA), and other proteins produce a chain of amino acids—the polypeptide—as the end product of translation.

Types of RNA

8.6K
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
  • Genetics
  • Biochemistry

Background:

  • The central dogma of molecular biology posits that genetic information flows from DNA to RNA to protein.
  • This process involves transcription (DNA to RNA) and translation (RNA to protein).
  • RNA molecules act as crucial intermediaries in gene expression.

Discussion:

  • Exploring the mechanisms and regulation of genetic information transfer.
  • Investigating the role of RNA in mediating the DNA-protein relationship.
  • Understanding the implications of the central dogma in various biological contexts.

Key Insights:

  • DNA sequences are transcribed into messenger RNA (mRNA).
  • mRNA is translated into specific amino acid sequences, forming proteins.
  • This flow of information is fundamental to cellular function and heredity.

Outlook:

  • Further research into non-coding RNAs and alternative splicing.
  • Investigating exceptions and nuances to the central dogma.
  • Applications in synthetic biology and genetic engineering.
