RNA can also be found
in the nucleus; but their roles
in human health and
disease remain relatively unexplored.
Therefore, it is essential that we learn how specific types of chemical modifications normally regulate
RNA function
in our cells,
in order to understand how dysregulation of this process contributes to
human disease, says Cristian Bellodi.
Since pseudouridine modifications may affect various
RNA molecules
in different types of normal and malignant cells, «our discoveries pave the way for future avenues of research aimed at exploring the role of pseudouridine

in RNA - binding proteins contribute to
human diseases such as metabolic disorders, cancer and neurodegeneration,» Lipshitz said.
His laboratory discovered that some of the same
RNA that is inside
human cells are also present
in saliva and can be used to detect
diseases — a surprising finding, he said, because enzymes
in saliva can degrade
RNA, making the mouth «a hostile environment.»
The study, the most comprehensive analysis ever conducted of
RNA molecules
in human saliva, reveals that saliva contains many of the same
disease - revealing molecules that are contained
in blood.
His laboratory develops and deploys new biochemical and computational methods
in functional genomics, to elucidate the genetic basis of
human disease and
human physiology, and to create and deploy novel techniques
in next - generation sequencing and algorithms for tumor evolution, genome evolution, DNA and
RNA modifications, and genome / epigenome engineering.

human cardiac muscle cells.
Previous research by Najafabadi had shown that
RNA degradation is involved
in different
human diseases.
That is when studies finally convinced scientists that the minuscule
RNA snippets they had taken to calling «microRNA» were regulating cellular and genetic processes throughout the
human body and were critical factors
in the determination of health and
disease.
An important model
in studying
human disease, the non-coding
RNA of the canine genome is an essential starting point for evolutionary and biomedical studies, according to a new study led by The Genome Analysis Centre (TGAC).
