The advent of high-throughput sequencing uncovered that our genome is pervasively transcribed into RNAs that are seemingly not translated into proteins. It was also found that non-coding RNA ...
Small non-coding RNAs, which are typically less than 200 nucleotides (nt) long and do not encode proteins, can be classified into two groups based on their functions 1. Housekeeping or structural RNAs ...
Scripps Research postdoctoral researcher Kaushik Chanda explores the mechanisms by which non-coding transcripts modulate neuronal function and structural integrity during learning and memory loss.
