Wikipedia Articles
- Small nuclear RNA - Small nuclear RNA (snRNA) is a class of small RNA molecules that are found within the nucleus of eukaryotic cells. They are transcribed by RNA polymerase II or RNA polymerase III and are involved in a variety of important processes such as RNA splicing (removal of introns from hnRNA), regulation of transcription factors (7SK RNA) or RNA ...
- RNA dependent RNA polymerase - RNA dependent RNA polymerase, or RDRP, is an enzyme that catalyzes the replication of RNA from an RNA template. In contrast to a typical RNA polymerase, which uses DNA as a template, RDRP is, as its name suggests, dependent on RNA.
- Small interfering RNA - Small interfering RNA (siRNA), sometimes known as short interfering RNA or silencing RNA, are a class of 20-25 nucleotide-long double-stranded RNA molecules that play a variety of roles in biology. Most notably, siRNA is involved in the RNA interference (RNAi) pathway where the siRNA interferes with the expression of a specific gene.
- RNA silencing - RNA silencing refers to a family of gene silencing effects by which the expression of one or more genes is downregulated or entirely suppressed by the introduction of an antisense RNA molecule. The most common and well-studied example is RNA interference, in which endogenously expressed microRNA or exogenously derived small interfering RNA induces the degradation of complementary messenger RNA.
- Antisense RNA - Antisense RNA (aRNA) is single-stranded RNA that is complementary to a messenger RNA (mRNA) strand transcribed within a cell. Antisense RNA may be introduced into a cell to inhibit translation of a complementary mRNA by base pairing to it and physically obstructing the translation machinery.
