Abstract excerpt
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are one of the most intensively studied groups of noncoding elements. Debate continues over what proportion of lncRNAs are functional or merely represent transcriptional noise. Although characterization of individual lncRNAs has identified approximately 200 functional loci across the Eukarya, general surveys have found only modest or no evidence of long-term evolutionary...
