Long non-coding RNAs: (lncRNA) are a type of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) that exceed 200 nucleotides in length. lncRNAs are a relatively abundant component of the mammalian transcriptome and have been implicated in several cellular functions, including the regulation of gene transcription through the recruitment of chromatin-modifying enzymes.
