Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are RNA molecules which are not translated into proteins. They are classified into two types based on their length, including short non-coding RNAs comprising microRNAs (miRNAs) and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs). They play a role in gene regulation at various levels, ranging from epigenetic gene silencing to post-transcriptional modulation of mRNA stability. The ncRNAs contribute in the regulation of cell physiology and shape cellular functions. They play an important role in brain development and function, and are also associated with the pathogenesis of psychiatric disorders. Several ncRNAs including circRNAs, miRNAs and lncRNAs have been implicated in regulatory functions. Furthermore, they are believed to play a role in Alzheimer's disease and cancer. This book explores all the important aspects of the biochemistry of RNA. It presents researches and studies performed by experts across the globe. The extensive content of this book provides the readers with a thorough understanding of this topic.

Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are RNA molecules that are not translated into proteins. They are divided into two categories, namely, housekeeping ncRNAs and regulatory ncRNAs. The main function of the ncRNAs is to maintain the normal cell functionalities. Small RNAs, ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs), long ncRNAs and transfer RNAs are some types of non-coding RNAs, which are abundant and functionally significant. Numerous types of small and long non-coding RNAs are considered important regulators of gene expression in a variety of processes, which range from embryonic development to innate immunity. This promotion of gene expression is done by a special ncRNA named enhancer RNA, which is transcribed from the enhancer region of the gene. The human genome is encoded with thousands of small and long RNA transcripts that do not code for proteins. This book explores all the important aspects of regulatory non-coding RNAs. It will prove to be immensely beneficial to students and researchers studying this topic.
