Enhancer-associated long noncoding RNAs act over long distances and across chromosomes to activate transcription at distal promoters. Here, we address the latest advances made toward understanding the role of long noncoding RNA expression and the involvement of these RNAs in enhancer function through association with protein factors and modulation of chromatin structure.
增强子相关的长链非编码 RNA 可远距离跨染色体作用,激活远端启动子的转录。在此,我们将介绍在理解长链非编码 RNA 表达的作用以及这些 RNA 通过与蛋白因子的结合和调节染色质结构参与增强子功能方面的最新进展。
