A long-noncoding RNA regulates repair of DNA breaks in triple-negative breast cancer cells

Thursday, April 28, 2016 - 15:20 in Biology & Nature

The discovery of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) has dramatically changed the understanding of the biology of diseases such as cancer. The human genome contains about 20,000 protein-coding genes - less than 2 percent of the total - but 70 percent of the genome is made into non-gene-encoding RNA.
