An intergenic non-coding RNA promoter required for histone modifications in the human β-globin chromatin domain

2019-05-15

Abstract excerpt

Transcriptome analyses show a surprisingly large proportion of the mammalian genome is transcribed; much more than can be accounted for by genes and introns alone. Most of this transcription is non-coding in nature and arises from intergenic regions, often overlapping known protein-coding genes in sense or antisense orientation. The functional relevance of this widespread transcription is unknown. Here we characte...
