These molecules add a new layer of complexity to biological processes and pathways by revealing a sophisticated and dynamic interconnected system whose structure is just beginning to be uncovered. Genetic and epigenetic aberrations affecting ncRNA gene sequences and their expression have been linked to a variety of pathological conditions, including cancer, cardiovascular and neurological diseases. Latest advances in the development of high throughput analysis techniques may help to shed light on the complex regulatory mechanisms in which ncRNA molecules are involved. Bioinformatics tools constitute a unique and essential resource for non-coding RNA studies, providing a powerful technology to organize, integrate and analyze the huge amount of data produced daily by wet biology experiments in order to discover patterns, identify relationships among heterogeneous biological elements and formulate functional hypotheses. This Research Topic reviews current knowledge, introduces novel methods, and discusses open challenges of this exciting and innovative field in connection with the most important biomedical applications. It consists of four reviews and six original research and methods articles, spanning the full scope of the Research Topic. 517 $aBioinformatics of Non-Coding RNAs with Applications to Biomedicine 606 $aBiotechnology$2bicssc 610 $abioinformatics 610 $aCLIPseq 610 $aCRISPR 610 $aisomiRs 610 $amicroRNA 610 $ancRNA 610 $anetworks 610 $aRNA Editing 610 $aRNAseq 610 $asiRNA 615 7$aBiotechnology 700 $aAlessandro Lagana$4auth$01312907 702 $aAlfredo Ferro$4auth 702 $aCarlo Maria Croce$4auth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910220052303321 996 $aBioinformatics of Non-Coding RNAs with Applications to Biomedicine: Recent Advances and Open Challenges$93031108 997 $aUNINA
