穹窿体RNA（英語：vault RNA，简称vRNA）是一种存在于穹窿体核糖核蛋白复合物中的非编码RNA，该类RNA于1986年被首次发现[1]。作为一种核糖核蛋白复合物，穹窿体除了含有8-16条短链RNA外，还包含96个穹窿体主蛋白（major vault proteins，MVP），两个穹窿体少数蛋白（minor vault proteins，分别为VPARP和TEP1）。穹窿体被认为与抗药性有关[2][3]。研究人员已利用冷冻显镜术揭示出vRNA位于穹窿体“帽”底部的内侧。vRNA在穹窿体中的位置可能暗示着穹窿体内外物质都可与其发生相互作用。[4]另有研究发现vRNA需要TEP1以辅助维持自身结构稳定[5]。

存在情况

vRNA已在下列几类生物的细胞中发现：

不含vRNA的穹窿体也被从以下几类生物的细胞中分离：[6]

多药耐药作用

结合在穹窿体中的vRNA长期以来都被认为与多药耐药有关[2]但直到2009年研究人员才了解其抗药的机理：穹窿体RNA可以通过DICER机制产生小穹窿体RNA（small vault RNAs ，简称svRNA），该机制与作用于miRNA的RNA干扰类，似[3]，当svRNA与一个argonaute蛋白结合后会降低CYP3A4基因的表达，而该基因编码一种在药物代谢中需要的酶[7]。
