moRNA, circRNA, snRNA [How many types of ncRNA do you know? Ep. 4/7]
This week, our journey in the ncRNAs universe brings us back to miRNAs before moving to splicing and the RNAs that make it possible. Let’s get going fellow travellers! 10. microRNA-offset RNA (moRNA) These ~ 20 nt long transcripts are coded in the regions of the pri-miRNA directly flanking the pre-miRNA. They were initially considered…

The Central Dogma of Molecular Biology is not What You Think [Common Misconceptions in Genomics, EP. 3]
Like many of you, I believed I knew the Central Dogma of molecular biology: DNA→ RNA→Protein. I was wrong. Somewhat shocked, I learned what it really means only last week, after digging in a paper older than my dad – I am a sucker for the history of science… Funnily enough, textbooks are probably responsible…
