Biology of Bacterial Non-Coding RNAs
Lecture - Bernal, Argentina
Non-coding small RNAs (sRNAs) have emerged as key regulators of gene expression in bacteria. Although significant progress has been made in the past 10 years in understanding their function, the enormous number of identified non-coding RNAs has opened a new field of research of not yet fully appreciated relevance. What are their functions? How do they act? How can we exploit them? This EMBO Global Exchange Lecture course will cover different aspects of non-coding RNAs, including their genetics & genomics, mechanisms of action, identification strategies, and characterised biological functions.
The goals of the course are:
1) to provide an intensive theoretical training in one of the frontlines of scientific research in the field of molecular microbiology;
2) to contribute to the development of non-coding RNA research area in Latin America.
A group of outstanding pioneers in non-coding RNA research have committed to participate in this exciting course to share their experience with enthusiastic students and to discuss upcoming challenges in the field
