Non-Coding RNAs and their Integrated Networks.

TL;DR: This review discusses the distinct types of ncRNAs, including housekeeping n cRNAs and regulatory nc RNAs, their versatile functions and interactions, transcription, translation, and modification, and summarizes the integrated networks of n cRNA interactions, providing a comprehensive landscape of nCRNAs regulatory roles.
Journal ArticleDOI

Roles of tRNA-derived fragments in human cancers.

TL;DR: This review summarizes the biogenesis and biological functions of different subtypes of tRNA-derived fragments and discusses their molecular mechanisms in cancer progression.
Journal ArticleDOI

unitas: the universal tool for annotation of small RNAs.

TL;DR: Unitas as discussed by the authors is an out-of-the-box ready software for complete annotation of small RNA sequence datasets, supporting the wide range of species for which non-coding RNA reference sequences are available in the Ensembl databases.

Small Non-Coding RNAs Derived from Eukaryotic Ribosomal RNA

TL;DR: A nonexhaustive list of referenced small non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) derived from eukaryotic ribosomal RNA (rRNA), called rRNA fragments (rRFs), which will focus on the rRFs that are experimentally verified, and discuss their origin, length, structure, biogenesis, association with known regulatory proteins, and potential role(s) as regulator of gene expression.

A novel class of small RNAs: tRNA-derived RNA fragments (tRFs)

TL;DR: The data suggest that tRFs are not random by-products of tRNA degradation or biogenesis, but an abundant and novel class of short RNAs with precise sequence structure that have specific expression patterns and specific biological roles.

Angiogenin-Induced tRNA Fragments Inhibit Translation Initiation

TL;DR: The data reveal some of the mechanisms by which stress-induced tRNA cleavage inhibits protein synthesis and activates a cytoprotective stress response program.
Journal ArticleDOI

Angiogenin cleaves tRNA and promotes stress-induced translational repression.

TL;DR: It is shown that arsenite, heat shock, or ultraviolet irradiation promotes transfer RNA (tRNA) cleavage and accumulation of tRNA-derived, stress-induced small RNAs (tiRNAs) and angiogenin, a secreted ribonuclease, is required for stress- induced production of tiRNAs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Endogenous tRNA-derived fragments suppress breast cancer progression via YBX1 displacement

TL;DR: These findings reveal a tumor-suppressive role for specific tRNA-derived fragments and describe a molecular mechanism for their action, which may generalize to other tRNA, ribosomal-RNA, and sno-RNA fragments.
Journal ArticleDOI

tRNA-derived microRNA modulates proliferation and the DNA damage response and is down-regulated in B cell lymphoma

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that one tRNA-derived fragment, cloned from human mature B cells and designated CU1276, in fact possesses the functional characteristics of a microRNA, including a DICER1-dependent biogenesis, physical association with Argonaute proteins, and the ability to repress mRNA transcripts in a sequence-specific manner.
