Simple Summary Long-non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are transcripts of more than 200
nucleotides, which lack protein-coding potential. LncRNAs have been well characterized in …

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNA), a class of RNA molecules without protein coding
potential, are more than 200 nucleotides in length and widely present in a variety of species …

Simple Summary In eukaryotes, the fraction of the genome not coding for proteins vastly
outsizes the portion containing protein-coding genes. This non-coding genome, once …
