Non-coding Transcripts from Enhancers: New Insights into Enhancer Activity and Gene Expression Regulation

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have gained widespread interest in the past decade owing to their enormous amount and surprising functions implicated in a variety of biological processes. Some lncRNAs exert function as enhancers, i.e., activating gene transcription by serving as the cis-regulatory mo...
