Control of Gene Expression in Senescence through Transcriptional Read-Through of Convergent Protein-Coding Genes
1 Nov 2017
Abstract excerpt
Antisense RNAs are non-coding RNAs that can regulate their corresponding sense RNAs and are generally produced from specific promoters. We uncover here a family of antisense RNAs, named START RNAs, produced during cellular senescence by transcriptional read-through at convergent protein-coding genes. Importantly, START RNAs repress the expression of their corresponding sense RNAs. In proliferative cells, we found...
