Abstract

For many years it was thought that the function of RNA was limited to the process of producing proteins. In recent years, scientific discoveries have been proving the multiple roles of different RNAs in different regulatory mechanisms. These RNA’s are collectively called non-coding RNA’s (ncRNA’s). This review presents the latest advances on the different classes of non-coding RNA’s (ncRNA’s) from their function to mechanisms of action. Special emphasis is given to the long non-coding RNAs as new regulatory elements in eukaryote gene expression and in the processes of epigenetic regulation in plants. We believe that increasing studies of regulatory non-coding RNAs in plants will provide a better understanding of the different types of genes related to crop resistance.

作物健康和疾病中的调节性非编码 RNA

摘要

多年来，人们一直认为 RNA 的功能仅限于产生蛋白质的过程。近年来，科学发现证明了不同RNA在不同调控机制中的多重作用。这些 RNA 统称为非编码 RNA (ncRNA)。这篇综述介绍了不同类别的非编码 RNA (ncRNA) 从功能到作用机制的最新进展。特别强调长非编码RNA作为真核生物基因表达和植物表观遗传调控过程中的新调控元件。我们相信，增加对植物调节性非编码RNA的研究将有助于更好地了解与作物抗性相关的不同类型的基因。
