UClncR – Ultrafast and comprehensive long non-coding RNA detection from RNA-Seq

lncrna

Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) is a large class of gene transcripts with regulatory functions discovered in recent years. Many more are expected to be revealed with accumulation of RNA-seq data from diverse types of normal and diseased tissues. However, discovering novel lncRNAs and accurately quantifying known lncRNAs is not trivial from massive RNA-seq data. Researchers at the Mayo Clinic have ...

A Pipeline for Discovery of DNA methylation patterns in long non-coding RNAs

lncRNA

A systematic pipeline is proposed to discover methylation patterns for lncRNAs. Subtype specific and common lncRNAs differ greatly in functions and structures. Methylation modules enhances the accuracy of prediction of cancers. Despite growing evidence demonstrates that the long non-coding ribonucleic acids (lncRNAs) are critical modulators for cancers, the knowledge about the DNA methylation patterns of lncRNAs is quite limited. Researchers ...
