What is shRNA (Short-hairpin RNA)? The shRNA is our short hairpin RNA, which is shorter, artificially manufactured, double-stranded ribonucleic acid that can be used in gene silencing investigations. What is RNA Interference? This mechanism inhibits genes through the targeting of messenger RNA molecules. mRNA is degraded, blocking protein synthesis and transcription. This is accomplished by … Read more
What is Small nuclear RNA (snRNA)? Types of Small nuclear RNA (snRNA) The snRNAs can be divided into two classes on the basis of common sequence features and protein cofactors. 1. Sm-class RNAS 2. Lsm-class RNAs Structure of snRNA Steps of snRNA gene transcription phosphorylation of the CTD of Pol II during snRNA gene transcription. … Read more

What is Transfer-messenger RNA (tmRNA)? History Properties of tmRNA tmRNA Structure tmRNA contain the following domains; tRNA-Mimic Domain Pseudoknots mRNA-Mimic Domain Protein Partners tmRNA Function ― Trans-Translation Trans-translation of tmRNA activity Steps Regulation of tmRNA activity Facts References
RNA Interference Definition RNA interference is the process by which RNA molecules suppress gene expression by neutralising the targeted messenger RNA molecules. RNA Interference Mechanism The RNA interference mechanism can be explained in the following steps: Why RNAi as a genetic tool? RNA Interference Applications References

Structure and mechanism of Ribozymes Splicing pathways of group I and II introns and the spliceosome Group I Group II Types of Ribozymes There are the different types of ribozymes such as; 1. RNase P ribozyme 2. Hepatitis delta virus (HDV) ribozyme 3. Hammerhead Ribozyme 4. Hairpin Ribozyme 5. Group … Read more
What is tRNA? History of tRNA Properties of tRNA tRNA biogenesis Structure of tRNA The transfer RNA (soluble RNA) molecule has a molecular weight of about 25,000 and has between 71 and 80 nucleotides, most of which are 75. There are at least 20 different kinds of tRNAs, which is the same number of amino … Read more
What is mRNA? This sort of RNA acts by transferring genetic material into ribosomes and transmitting instructions regarding the types of proteins that body cells require. Based on their roles, these RNA types are known as messenger RNA. Therefore, mRNA plays an essential function in the transcription process or during protein synthesis. History of mRNA … Read more
mRNA Degradation in Prokaryotic Cells Bacterial Ribonucleases Bacteria use a vast arsenal of ribonucleolytic enzymes to degrade messenger RNA (mRNA), many of which are exclusive to certain bacterial clades. Endoribonucleases RNase E, RNase Y, and RNase III are the most prominent endonucleases implicated thus far in bacterial mRNA turnover. Exoribonucleases In order to supplement the … Read more
