What is Dark transcriptome?

Dormant1 article

Overview

The dark transcriptome refers to the vast portion of the genome that is transcribed into RNA but does not code for proteins, including various types of noncoding RNAs. Understanding the dark transcriptome is critical for unraveling complex gene regulation mechanisms and identifying novel therapeutic targets in diseases.

Current status

Dark transcriptome is currently classified as Dormant. Dormant means there has been no significant new coverage recently. Peak interest was on Mar 20, 02:47 PM.
