Abstract:Transfer RNA (tRNA)-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs) belong to a group of transfer ribonucleic acid (tRNA)-derived fragments that have recently gained interest as molecules with specific biological functions. Their involvement in the regulation of physiological processes and pathological phenotypes suggests molecular roles similar to those of miRNAs. tsRNA biogenesis under specific physiological conditions will offer new perspectives in understanding diseases, and may provide new sources for biological marker desig… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
