Overview of miRNA Synthesis

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small, non-coding RNA molecules typically 20-24 nucleotides in length. They regulate gene expression post-transcriptionally by binding to complementary sequences on target messenger RNAs (mRNAs), leading to mRNA degradation or translational repression. This regulation is crucial in various biological processes, including development, cell differentiation, proliferation, and apoptosis.

Synthesizing miRNAs is essential for researchers studying gene function and for developing miRNA-based therapeutics. Synthetic miRNAs allow for the manipulation of gene expression in vitro and in vivo, facilitating the exploration of cellular pathways and disease mechanisms. At Protheragen BioNucleics, we provide high-quality, customized miRNA synthesis services that meet the specific needs of your research and development projects.
