    molecules of RNA that regulate gene expression without making proteins

    Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are molecules of RNA that do not encode proteins but play crucial roles in regulating gene expression and maintaining cellular functions. They include various types such as microRNAs (miRNAs) and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), which can influence processes like cell growth, differentiation, and response to stress, making them important in both normal biology and disease states.
