【Course Objectives】

RNA plays a central role in gene expression and its regulation. This course is designed to teach students about current RNA biology and to enhance students' understanding of the diverse functions of RNA.

【Course Contents】

RNA plays a central role in protein biosynthesis as messenger RNA, transfer RNA, and ribosomal RNA. Recently, it has also become clear that small non-coding RNAs and long non-coding RNAs play important roles in the regulation of gene expression. In this course, students will learn about eukaryotic translation mechanisms, the functions of small RNAs such as microRNAs, small interfering RNAs, and piRNAs, and the functions of various long non-coding RNAs such as lincRNAs to understand the diverse functions of RNA.
