This book presents an overview of the RNA networks controlling gene
expression in fungi highlighting the remaining questions and future
challenges in this area.
It covers several aspects of the RNA-mediated mechanisms that
regulate gene expression in model yeasts and filamentous fungi,
organisms of great importance for industry, medicine and
agriculture. It is estimated that there are more than one million
fungal species on the Earth. Despite their diversity (saprophytic,
parasitic and mutualistic), fungi share common features distinctive
from plants and animals and have been grouped taxonomically as an
independent eukaryotic kingdom. In this book, 15 chapters written
by experts in their fields cover the RNA-dependent processes that
take place in a fungal cell ranging from formation of coding and
non-coding RNAs to mRNA translation, ribosomal RNA biogenesis, gene
silencing, RNA editing and epigenetic regulation.
