Widespread Antisense Transcription in Prokaryotes. [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiol Spectr, 2018
ABSTRACT Although bacterial genomes are usually densely protein-coding, genome-wide mapping approaches of transcriptional start sites revealed that a significant fraction of the identified promoters drive the transcription of noncoding RNAs.

Antisense transcription from stress-responsive transcription factors fine-tunes the cold response in Arabidopsis. [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Cell
Transcription of antisense long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) occurs pervasively across eukaryotic genomes. Only a few antisense lncRNAs have been characterized and shown to control biological processes, albeit with idiosyncratic regulatory mechanisms.

Natural antisense transcripts [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Molecular Genetics, 2014
Recent years have seen the increasing understanding of the crucial role of RNA in the functioning of the eukaryotic genome. These discoveries, fueled by the achievements of the FANTOM, and later GENCODE and ENCODE consortia, led to the recognition of the important regulatory roles of natural antisense transcripts (NATs) arising from what was previously

Abundant binary promoter switches in lineage-determining transcription factors indicate a digital component of cell fate determination

open access: yesCell Reports, 2023
Summary: Previous studies of the murine Ly49 and human KIR gene clusters implicated competing sense and antisense promoters in the control of variegated gene expression.

Investigating Antisense Transcription at the HTT Locus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Antisense transcription is an important mechanism of gene expression regulation. Antisense RNAs play a role in mRNA processing, translation and epigenetic modifications of DNA and histones in the locus of their origin, leading to gene silencing. HTT is a

Antisense non-coding transcription represses the PHO5 model gene at the level of promoter chromatin structure.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2022
Pervasive transcription of eukaryotic genomes generates non-coding transcripts with regulatory potential. We examined the effects of non-coding antisense transcription on the regulation of expression of the yeast PHO5 gene, a paradigmatic case for gene ...

Localizing hotspots of antisense transcription [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2007
Analysis of the transcriptome by computational and experimental methods has established that sense-antisense transcriptional units are a common phenomenon. Although the regulatory potential of antisense transcripts has been experimentally verified in a number of studies, the biological importance of sense-antisense regulation of gene expression is ...

CCIVR2 facilitates comprehensive identification of both overlapping and non-overlapping antisense transcripts within specified regions

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Pairs of sense and antisense transcriptions that are adjacent at their 5′ and 3′ regions are called divergent and convergent transcription, respectively. However, the structural properties of divergent/convergent transcription in different species or RNA
