Once considered cellular junk, non-coding RNAs are emerging as key players in everything from brain development to cancer — ...

To understand the human genome, scientists focused on protein-coding genes and their functions for decades. This has given us ...

Long non-coding RNAs exist in the so-called "Wild West" (99%) of the human genome that is currently understudied. Not only does this finding have treatment implications for patients with ...

Scientists profiling small non-coding RNAs in postmortem brain tissue from people with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder have identified sweeping molecular disruptions that extend well beyond the ...

Three studies published in Nature Genetics look at the identification of a common recessive neurodevelopmental disorder (NDD).
