UTR

Flanking the code

UTR stands for "under the radar," describing something kept quiet or unnoticed: She's been UTR about her new relationship.

The abbreviation appears mainly in casual online communication.

In genetics, UTR refers to untranslated regions of messenger RNA—sections that don't code for proteins but regulate gene expression.
