How do lncRNAs regulate transcription
TLDR
Recent progress in elucidating the molecular mechanisms by which lncRNAs modulate gene expression is reviewed, including the act of lnc RNA transcription rather than the lncRNA product that appears to be regulatory.Abstract:
It has recently become apparent that RNA, itself the product of transcription, is a major regulator of the transcriptional process. In particular, long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), which are so numerous in eukaryotes, function in many cases as transcriptional regulators. These RNAs function through binding to histone-modifying complexes, to DNA binding proteins (including transcription factors), and even to RNA polymerase II. In other cases, it is the act of lncRNA transcription rather than the lncRNA product that appears to be regulatory. We review recent progress in elucidating the molecular mechanisms by which lncRNAs modulate gene expression and future opportunities in this research field.read more

A comprehensive Xist interactome reveals cohesin repulsion and an RNA-directed chromosome conformation
Anand Minajigi,John E. Froberg,Chunyao Wei,Hongjae Sunwoo,Barry Kesner,David Colognori,Derek Lessing,Bernhard Payer,Myriam Boukhali,Wilhelm Haas,Jeannie T. Lee +10 more
TL;DR: These findings demonstrate that, while Xist attracts repressive complexes to the Xi, it actively repels chromosomal architectural factors such as the cohesins from the Xi.

Promiscuous RNA binding by Polycomb repressive complex 2
Chen Davidovich,Leon Zheng,Karen J. Goodrich,Karen J. Goodrich,Thomas R. Cech,Thomas R. Cech +5 more
TL;DR: These findings support a model in which PRC2's promiscuous binding to RNA transcripts allows it to scan for target genes that have escaped repression, thus leading to maintenance of the repressed state.

Chromodomains are protein–RNA interaction modules
TL;DR: It is shown that association of MOF with the male X chromosome depends on its interaction with RNA, and MOF specifically binds through its chromodomain to roX2 RNA in vivo.
