The Airn lncRNA does not require any DNA elements within its locus to silence distant imprinted genes.
Long non-coding (lnc) RNAs are numerous and found throughout the mammalian genome, and many are thought to be involved in the regulation of gene expression. However, the majority remain relatively uncharacterised and of uncertain function making the use of model systems to uncover their mode of acti...
