  1. 1. Small non-coding RNAs in cancer

    Author : Helena Persson; Bröstcancer-genetik; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; microRNA; non-coding RNA; breast cancer; CYP3A4; bladder cancer;

    Abstract : The complex genetics of cancer, which allows tumours to grow and spread while bypassing the control circuitry of the cell, involves dysregulation of the genome, transcriptome and proteome. The importance of protein-coding genes such as growth factors and hormone receptors is well established. READ MORE

  2. 2. Computational identification of non-coding RNAs

    Author : Paul Piccinelli; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : RNase P; RNase MRP; IRE; non-coding RNA; secondary structure;

    Abstract : A large amount of genomic information is now becoming available. Suitable bioinformatic tools to organize and analyze this vast amount of information are therefore important. In the case of protein genes, the majority of these may be correctly identified using standard search methods that are based on sequence alignment. READ MORE

  3. 3. Adenoviral small non-coding RNAs : A Structural and Functional Charaterization

    Author : Wael Kamel; Göran Akusjärvi; Ben Berkhout; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : non-coding RNA miRNA mivaRNA canonical Dicer Ago2 TSS m7G Cap Adenovirus replication E2B;

    Abstract : Since their discovery in 1953, adenoviruses have significantly contributed to the understanding of virus-host cell interactions, including mechanistic details of cellular processes such as cell cycle control and alternative RNA splicing. Among the first characterized adenoviral genes were the virus-associated RNAs (VA RNAI/II), which are produced in massive amount during a lytic infection. READ MORE

  4. 4. Characterization of non-coding RNAs in cancer

    Author : Per Johnsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : While originally though to only code for proteins, it now stands clear that RNA is a multifunctional molecule involved in a great variety of molecular processes. Recent advances in genome-wide platforms have revealed underappreciated roles of non-protein coding RNAs (ncRNAs). READ MORE
