Non-coding RNA transcription: turning on neighbours

Piero Carninci. Nat Cell Biol. 2008 Sep.

Abstract

Even though less than 2% of the mammalian genome encodes proteins, a significant fraction can be transcribed into non-coding RNAs. An elegant study identifies a function for non-coding RNA transcription in activating neighbouring genes.
