Abstract
Editorial: Bioinformatics of Non-Coding RNAs with Applications to Biomedicine: Recent Advances and Open Challenges.
Highlights
The recent advances in the functional characterization of non-protein-coding RNAs have represented a major breakthrough in the life sciences
Large-scale projects, such as ENCODE, have shown that the human genome is pervasively transcribed and that a large proportion of the mammalian transcriptome consists of ncRNA transcripts. ncRNA genes can be roughly classified into short ncRNAs (200 nt)
Bioinformatics tools constitute an essential resource for ncRNA research, providing a powerful means to organize, integrate, and analyze the huge amount of data generated by such technologies
Summary
(2015) Editorial: Bioinformatics of non-coding RNAs with applications to biomedicine: recent advances and open challenges. The recent advances in the functional characterization of non-protein-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) have represented a major breakthrough in the life sciences. Bioinformatics tools constitute an essential resource for ncRNA research, providing a powerful means to organize, integrate, and analyze the huge amount of data generated by such technologies.
