Base pair
A base pair (bp) is a fundamental unit of double-stranded nucleic acids consisting of two nucleobases bound to each other by hydrogen bonds.
See MicroRNA 210 and Base pair
Cytoplasm
In cell biology, the cytoplasm describes all material within a eukaryotic cell, enclosed by the cell membrane, except for the cell nucleus.
See MicroRNA 210 and Cytoplasm
Dicer
Dicer, also known as endoribonuclease Dicer or helicase with RNase motif, is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the gene.
Drosha
Drosha is a Class 2 ribonuclease III enzyme that in humans is encoded by the DROSHA (formerly RNASEN) gene.
Gene
In biology, the word gene has two meanings.
Gene expression
Gene expression is the process by which information from a gene is used in the synthesis of a functional gene product that enables it to produce end products, proteins or non-coding RNA, and ultimately affect a phenotype.
See MicroRNA 210 and Gene expression
MicroRNA
MicroRNA (miRNA) are small, single-stranded, non-coding RNA molecules containing 21 to 23 nucleotides.
Non-coding RNA
A non-coding RNA (ncRNA) is a functional RNA molecule that is not translated into a protein.
See MicroRNA 210 and Non-coding RNA
Polyadenylation
Polyadenylation is the addition of a poly(A) tail to an RNA transcript, typically a messenger RNA (mRNA).
See MicroRNA 210 and Polyadenylation
Post-transcriptional regulation
Post-transcriptional regulation is the control of gene expression at the RNA level.
See MicroRNA 210 and Post-transcriptional regulation
Protein
Proteins are large biomolecules and macromolecules that comprise one or more long chains of amino acid residues.
RNA polymerase II
RNA polymerase II (RNAP II and Pol II) is a multiprotein complex that transcribes DNA into precursors of messenger RNA (mRNA) and most small nuclear RNA (snRNA) and microRNA.
See MicroRNA 210 and RNA polymerase II
RNA-induced silencing complex
The RNA-induced silencing complex, or RISC, is a multiprotein complex, specifically a ribonucleoprotein, which functions in gene silencing via a variety of pathways at the transcriptional and translational levels.
See MicroRNA 210 and RNA-induced silencing complex
Sense (molecular biology)
In molecular biology and genetics, the sense of a nucleic acid molecule, particularly of a strand of DNA or RNA, refers to the nature of the roles of the strand and its complement in specifying a sequence of amino acids.
See MicroRNA 210 and Sense (molecular biology)
Stem-loop
Stem-loop intramolecular base pairing is a pattern that can occur in single-stranded RNA.
