Abstract in another language

The first described non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), microRNAs, regulate mRNA fate in a post-transcriptional manner. With the advent of modern high-throughput methods many novel classes of ncRNAs were described. In contrast to microRNAs, most of these regulate the transcription process itself and hence are of fundamental biological importance. Work in our laboratory addresses how transcriptional regulation by ncRNAs influences biological processes ranging from regeneration to neuronal plasticity.
