| Research Abstract |
Non-coding RNA is a functional RNA that is not translated into a protein. To reveal metabolisms of non-coding RNA and their impact on gene expression in higher plants, we characterized the flower pigmentation patterns of the Japanese morning glory that are regulated by small RNA. While small RNA regulate gene expressions through mRNA cleavage in plants, our results suggested that small RNA also cause translational inhibition.
