Many translated sORFs have been identified across mRNAs, including 5’-upstream, coding domain, and 3’-downstream. sORFs have also been found in circular RNAs, pri-miRNAs, and ribosomal RNAs. Here, we present an overview of the wide distribution of the sORFs in transcripts and their functional roles in organisms.展开更多

小开放阅读框(small open reading frame,sORF)广泛存在于不同生物基因组中,由于其序列短,以及编码的产物小蛋白(small protein,或称微蛋白;microprotein或迷你蛋白miniprotein)检测困难等原因,小开放阅读框长期未得到充分注释和研究。...小开放阅读框(small open reading frame,sORF)广泛存在于不同生物基因组中,由于其序列短,以及编码的产物小蛋白(small protein,或称微蛋白;microprotein或迷你蛋白miniprotein)检测困难等原因,小开放阅读框长期未得到充分注释和研究。近年来,随着高通量测序、翻译组和质谱分析等技术的不断发展,在不同生物中发现大量新的小开放阅读框,其编码的小蛋白及介导的翻译调控已应用于药物开发及植物抗病机理等研究。但是,目前对微生物的小开放阅读框相关研究和应用还相对有限。本文综述了小开放阅读框编码产物小蛋白的发现和鉴定,以及上游开放阅读框(upstream open reading frame,uORF)对mRNA翻译调控等最新研究进展,重点介绍了微生物基因组中小开放阅读框的鉴定和功能研究进展,为深入认识微生物中小开放阅读框的功能和作用机制,以及植物和动物等高等其他生物的小蛋白和翻译调控相关研究提供参考。展开更多

Although miPs are difficult to analyze and identify, a number of studies have begun to focus on them. More and more miPs have been revealed as essential for energy metabolism homeostasis, immune regulation, and tumor growth and development. Many reports have shown that miPs are especially essential for regulating glucose and lipid metabolism and regulating mitochondrial function.MiPs are also involved in the progression of related diseases. This paper reviews the sources and identification of miPs, as well as the functional significance of miPs for metabolism-related diseases, with the aim of revealing their potential clinical applications.展开更多
