mRNA's role in genetics expanded beyond protein synthesis

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A recent study on plants has uncovered that certain messenger RNAs (mRNAs) can influence gene regulation without the need to produce proteins. This finding challenges the traditional distinction between mRNA and regulatory RNA, suggesting a more complex role for mRNA in genetic processes. AI
