Review: Biological Bases and Characterization of Long Non-Coding RNAs

Abstract

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) were known not so long ago as a type of diverse non-coding RNAs that have received much attention due to their multiple regulatory activities at the nuclear and cellular level and their essential participation in the regulation of many chemical and biological activities. Although lncRNAs are expressed at low levels, they do not encode proteins, are insufficiently conserved, and act by various mechanisms. However, some characteristics and functions of several copies of lncRNAs separate them from other forms of non-coding RNA have been discovered. Here we will look at how events develop in lncRNAs and talk about their main biological properties and influences, as well as how to achieve such a wide range of functions using a variety of mechanisms such as protein transfer, gene transcription, chromatin rearrangement, unique properties, and other biological activities.
