To address the lack of standard terminology to describe extracellular RNA (exRNA) data/metadata, a team led by researchers at Yale University School of Medicine have launched an inter-community effort to extend the Gene Ontology (GO) with subcellular structure concepts relevant ...
Read More »The NIH Extracellular RNA Communication Consortium
Extracellular RNAs (exRNAs) have been identified in all tested biofluids and have been associated with a variety of extracellular vesicles, ribonucleoprotein complexes and lipoprotein complexes. Much of the interest in exRNAs lies in the fact that they may serve as ...
