See how small bits of non-coding RNA target ... sites are usually found in the coding regions, while in animals, they are often in the 3' untranslated region of mRNA (Chen & Rajewsky, 2007).

Within a gene, there are coding regions called exons, which contain the information for protein synthesis, and non ... in the DNA sequence. Methylation can lead to gene silencing by preventing ...

One gene quickly stood out because its RNA was three times more abundant in eventually metastasizing tumor samples than in non-metastasizing ones ... that the RNA molecules themselves interact with ...
