Researchers from Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition report on findings in biochemistry

Published in Medical Letter on the CDC and FDA, July 25th, 2010

Researchers detail in 'Small noncoding RNAs: biogenesis, function, and emerging significance in toxicology,' new data in biochemistry. "In recent years, the discovery of small ncRNAs (noncoding RNAs) has unveiled a slew of powerful riboregulators of gene expression. So far, many different types of small ncRNAs have been described," scientists writing in the Journal of Biochemical and Molecular Toxicology report.

"Of these, miRNAs (microRNAs), siRNAs (small interfering RNAs), and piRNAs (Piwi-interacting RNAs) have been studied in more detail. A significant fraction of genes in most organisms and tissues is targets of these small ncRNAs. Because these tiny RNAs...
