摘要

非编码DNA序列是指基因组中不编码蛋白质的DNA序列。这些序列可以结合调节因子、转录为功能性RNA、单独或协同地调节生理活动和病理过程。文章围绕基因表达调控作用, 总结了近几年非编码DNA序列的研究成果, 对其结构、功能和可能的作用机制进行了初步阐述, 介绍了目前鉴定非编码DNA序列中功能元件的计算方法和实验技术, 并对非编码DNA未来的研究进行了展望。

Abstract

The non-coding DNA sequences refer to non-protein-coding DNA sequences in genome. These sequences can bind with transcription factors or be transcribed as functional RNAs, thus participating in the regulation of many physiological activities and pathological processes. Aiming at gene expression regulation, this review focuses on the recent progress of non-coding DNA and illustrates their structures, functions and potential acting mechanisms. Meanwhile, some computational and experimental methods of identifying functional elements in the non-coding DNAs are introduced. Finally, further studies in this field are proposed.
