Small Regulatory RNAs
Overview of Antisense DNA
This image displays a mechanism of antisense DNA. However, it is important to note that an antisense RNA functions in the same manner. The antisense RNA can bind to the mRNA and inhibit translation. In some cases, small regulatory RNAs, not included in the antisense category, can activate translation as well.
