lncRNA Blog

The lncRNA Blog is a blog covering the specific topic of long non-coding RNA (ncRNA). It is a place to find the latest research and industry news and information about long non-coding RNA. Long non-coding RNAs (long ncRNAs, lncRNA) are non-protein coding transcripts longer than 200 nucleotides (Perkel 2013). This somewhat arbitrary limit distinguishes long ncRNAs from small regulatory RNAs such as microRNAs (miRNAs), short interfering RNAs (siRNAs), Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs), small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs), and other short RNAs. – wikipedia
