LincRNAs serve as genetic air-traffic controllers

Earlier this year, a scientific team from Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Centre (BIDMC) and the Broad Institute identified a class of RNA genes known as large intervening non-coding RNAs or 'lincRNAs,' a discovery that has pushed the field forward in understanding the roles of these molecules in many biological processes, including stem cell pluripotency, cell cycle regulation, and the innate immune response...
