Disease-Causing Mutations and Rearrangements in Long Non-coding RNA Gene Loci

The classic understanding of molecular disease-mechanisms is largely based on protein-centric models. During the past decade however, genetic studies have identified numerous disease-loci in the human genome that do not encode proteins. Such non-coding DNA variants increasingly gain attention in dia...
