通过对基因组序列的分析以及对表达rna的鉴定和表征，初步的基因发现表明，脊椎动物基因组中只有相对较小的一部分被转录成编码蛋白质的mrna。然而，与蛋白质编码“基因”的缺乏相比，转录具有巨大的复杂性，与不同种类的非编码rna （ncRNAs）相比，蛋白质编码mrna只占转录本的很小一部分。这种转录组的复杂性可能被假设为具有像脊椎动物这样复杂的生物体的发育和功能所必需的调节作用。同时，它提出了一个基本问题，即基因的明确定义。假设许多ncrna可能通过作为调控元件精细地调节基因活性是很有趣的。这些新出现的假说表明，基因调控机制可能与短rna世界有着深刻的联系。这些rna通常可以对蛋白质编码转录组进行微调。
Initial gene discovery efforts through analysis of genome sequences and identification and characterization of expressed RNAs have revealed that only a relatively small portion of the genome is transcribed into protein coding mRNAs in vertebrates. However, in contrast with this paucity of protein coding ‘genes’, there is an enormous complexity in transcription and the protein coding mRNAs contribute to a very small fraction of transcripts in comparison with the different varieties of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs). This transcriptome complexity may be hypothesized to have a regulatory role that is required for the development and function of organisms as complex as vertebrates. At the same time, it raises the fundamental question of the unequivocal definition of a gene. It is intriguing to postulate that many ncRNAs might finely modulate gene activity by acting as regulatory elements. The emerging hypotheses suggest that the gene regulatory machinery may be deeply interconnected with the world of short RNAs. These RNAs may generally act for fine-tuning of the protein-coding transcriptome.
