Noncoding RNA participation in gene expression regulation in yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Abstract

Saccharomyces cerevisiae lacks the main components of RNAi-dependent gene silencing. Nevertheless, regulation of gene expression in S. cerevisiae could be accomplished via some other types of noncoding RNA, particularly via antisense RNA. Although, there is a high percent of untranslated RNA in yeast genome only few evidences of noncoding RNA gene regulation exist in yeast S. cerevisiae, some of them are reviewed in the present paper.
