In this section, we review the major types and the concentrations of these different types of RNA within an average cell. These include short non-coding RNA like microRNAs and small interfering RNAs that are 20-30 nucleotides, The small noncoding RNAs up to 200 nt, which include transfer RNA, small nuclear RNA and small nucleolar RNA, and long noncoding RNAs greater than 200 nt, which include ribosomal RNA enhancer RNA and long intergentic RNAs. Coding messenger RNA is also discussed.
