Negative regulation of the interferon response by an interferon-induced long non-coding RNA

TL;DR: Results indicate that the IFN response involves a lncRNA-mediated negative regulatory mechanism, and lnc RNA-CMPK2 was strongly upregulated in a subset of HCV-infected human livers, suggesting a role in modulation of theIFN response in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI

Computational analysis of functional long noncoding RNAs reveals lack of peptide-coding capacity and parallels with 3′ UTRs

TL;DR: Interestingly, analyses revealed significant similarities between the lncRNAs and the 3' untranslated regions (3' UTRs) in protein-coding RNAs in structural features and sequence composition, which indicates that highly similar evolutionary constraints govern the function of regulatory RNA sequences in the cell.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Novel RNA Motif Mediates the Strict Nuclear Localization of a Long Noncoding RNA

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed the sequence requirements for nuclear localization in an intergenic lncRNA named BORG (BMP2-OP1-responsive gene), which is both spliced and polyadenylated but is strictly localized in nuclei.
