Abstract excerpt
The Genome of a eukaryotic cell harbors genetic material in the form of DNA which carries the hereditary information encoded in their bases. Nucleotide bases of DNA are transcribed into complimentary RNA bases which are further translated into protein, performing defined set of functions. The central dogma of life ensures sequential flow of genetic information among these biopolymers. Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs)...
