Great idea. Can you add me please.

I've been catching up on some reading and came across this paper. Ovarian cancers export a cancer-specific #lncRNA, Tu-stroma, to TME via exosomes. Tu-stroma alters spicing of flower gene in stromal cells to reduce cell fitness. Such a cool mechanism.

Join us in Keystone, CO, USA, for insights from Keynote Speaker V. Narry Kim at the Non-Coding RNA Biology conference. Register right up until the conference starts, on January 27th.

🫣 I'm guilty of this in my latest Molecular Cancer paper! Many of our lncRNAs don't have GENCODE IDs so we kept the XLOC_IDs from the output of our custom assembly. But this will get confusing as inevitably there with be the same XLOC_IDs for 2 different lncRNAs produced from different assemblies.

With respect to (b) I can't help but wonder if this was observed because only high expressing lncRNAs (>5RPKM) were selected for the screens. LncRNAs working in cis are much more likely to be expressed at lower levels than those working in trans.

We have two fully funded #Postdoctoral
positions:
-One dark genome explorer to lead a curiosity-driven project on #lncRNA
in #cancer #therapyresistance
-One experienced researcher interested in working on #drugdevelopment in collaboration with industrial partners

Australian researchers - I think we need to bring back #NHMRC grant review panels? What do others think?

I’m not on the committee anymore and I don’t think they have migrated over yet. 😖

Hi. Would you mind adding me to the lncRNA starter pack please 🙏🏻

Fellow #RNA lovers, please repost 🙏: 2 ERC-funded Post-doc positions are available in our lab to investigate #RNA structural ensemble and their dynamics in living cells. Application link: t.co/pYJ3H3j705

Lorne Genome

‼️Today is the last day to submit your Lorne Genome abstract for an oral presentation, your award application and to register at the earlybird rate‼️ If you've not already done so, time is running out. We look forward to seeing you in Lorne. lornegenome.org #lornegenome25

Could you add me to this starter please 🙏🏻 .

All good questions but not enough has been done in this area to answer them. There is some evidence of the formation of R loops which would confer specificity. Alternatively, the RNA could be inducing phase separation to concentrate TFs - doesn't account for the specificity though??

The lncRNA I’m working on is transcribed for an 11kb enhancer cluster. The RNA itself mediates the looping between the enhancer and the target gene and act of transcription maintains the 11kb H3K27Ac mark. The lncRNA also works in trans in the cytoplasm in the same pathway. Not just byproduct!

Hopefully see you there!
