Classification of Transcription Boundary-Associated RNAs (TBARs) in Animals and Plants [PDF]

Frontiers in Genetics, 2018
There is increasing evidence suggesting the contribution of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) to the phenotypic and physiological complexity of organisms. A novel ncRNA species has been identified near the transcription boundaries of protein-coding genes in eukaryotes, bacteria, and archaea.
