Long non-coding RNAs and its biological functions

  Research Group: Molecular & Cell Biology
In addition to ~20,000 protein coding genes, human genome contains ~30,000 genes that encode for functional RNAs. Apart from the rRNAs and tRNAs that are involved in translation, the famous example is the Xist RNA involved in silencing of one X chromosome in females. Read more

Investigating the Role of Extracellular Vesicle-Mediated Transfer of snoRNAs and Ribosomes in Joint Ageing

Ageing causes significant deterioration in musculoskeletal tissues, especially cartilage, contributing to osteoarthritis. Small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) and extracellular vesicles (EVs) change with age and may drive cartilage decline by altering ribosome function and transferring regulatory RNA cargo. Read more

Control and inhibition of virus replication

The Tuplin group explores how RNA viruses regulate replication and translation of their genomes through dynamic interactions between structured viral RNA, host and viral proteins and host-cell non-coding RNAs (including siRNAs, lncRNAs, and circRNAs). Read more
