Regulation by 3′-Untranslated Regions
Abstract
3'-untranslated regions (3'-UTRs) are the noncoding parts of mRNAs. Compared to yeast, in humans, median 3'-UTR length has expanded approximately tenfold alongside an increased generation of alternative 3'-UTR isoforms. In contrast, the number of coding genes, as well as coding region length, has remained similar. This suggests an important role for 3'-UTRs in the biology of higher organisms. 3'-UTRs are best known to regulate diverse fates of...
