Speculate on the possible regulatory roles played by noncoding RNA in protein synthesis.
Noncoding RNAs can recruit proteins to certain RNA sequences. These proteins can then modify the RNA (as occurs with snoRNA), regulate the stability of specific sequences by orchestrating their destruction or protecting them from destruction, altering the rate of translation by binding to 5′-UTR or 3′-UTRs, and localize specific sequences within the cytoplasm.
