Fungal small RNA: unveiling the breakthroughs and promising applications (opens in new tab)

Small RNAs (sRNAs) are abundant endogenous non-coding RNAs in eukaryotic organisms that regulate gene expression by binding to their target mRNAs either completely or partially. The rapid advancements in fungal sRNA research in recent years have significantly expanded our understanding of their biogenesis, functional mechanisms, and roles in fungal biology. Unlike previous reviews that predominantly focus on the intracellular biogenesis and regulatory networks of fungal sRNAs within fungal ce...
