The University of Texas researchers have recently discovered that small synthetic RNAs (sRNAs) that are complementary to sequences located 3'-outside of genes can efficiently modulate gene expression. These new findings significantly expand the transcription-regulatory potential of sRNAs, and they also may provide useful leads for other artificial nucleobase oligomers to target sequences beyond the 3' termini of mRNA.
德克萨斯大学的研究人员最近发现,与基因3'端外侧序列互补的小合成RNA(sRNA)能够有效调节基因表达。这些新发现显著扩展了sRNA的转录调控潜力,也可能为其他人工核碱基寡聚物靶向mRNA 3'端以外的序列提供有用线索。
