Long Noncoding RNAs Promote Transcriptional Poising of Inducible Genes
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a class of molecules that impinge on the expression of protein-coding genes. Previous studies have suggested that the GAL cluster-associated lncRNAs of Saccharomyces cerevisiae repress expression of the protein-coding GAL genes. Herein, we demonstrate a previously unrecognized role for the GAL lncRNAs in activating gene expression. In yeast strains lacking the ...
متن کاملDecapping of long noncoding RNAs regulates inducible genes.
Decapping represents a critical control point in regulating expression of protein coding genes. Here, we demonstrate that decapping also modulates expression of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs). Specifically, levels of >100 lncRNAs in yeast are controlled by decapping and are degraded by a pathway that occurs independent of decapping regulators. We find many lncRNAs degraded by DCP2 are expressed ...
متن کاملTranscriptional regulatory functions of nuclear long noncoding RNAs
Several nuclear localised intergenic long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been ascribed regulatory roles in transcriptional control and their number is growing rapidly. Initially, these transcripts were shown to function locally, near their sites of synthesis, by regulating the expression of neighbouring genes. More recently, lncRNAs have been demonstrated to interact with chromatin at several th...
متن کاملLong Noncoding RNAs
Ma Recent studies suggest that the majority of the human genome is transcribed, but only about 2% accounts for proteincoding exons. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) constitute a heterogenic class of RNAs that includes, for example, intergenic lncRNAs, antisense transcripts, and enhancer RNAs. Moreover, alternative splicing can lead to the formation of circular RNAs. In support of putative function...
متن کاملLong Noncoding RNAs in Aging
Aging is associated with increasing the risk of disease and death. Recently, increasing evidences suggest that many long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) function through specific interactions with other cellular factors, namely proteins, DNA, and other RNA molecules. LncRNAs play important roles in a wide range of age-related diseases, such as cancer, cardiovascular pathologies, and neurodegenerative ...
