👉 Xenocratena is a term used in the field of biochemistry to describe proteins that are synthesized from amino acids and do not contain any genetic information or coding sequences. These proteins are referred to as "non-coding" because they lack the ability to code for specific biological functions. Examples of non-coding proteins include ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and poly-A tails, which play a crucial role in protein synthesis but do not encode for specific enzymes or other functional genes.
