SIMILAR MACHINERY. “There is no specific transcription of lncRNAs, the transcriptional machinery being common to lncRNAs and mRNAs. Lack of reading frame cannot also be a discriminating factor between mRNAs and ncRNAs because 50% of lincRNAs contain regions with high translational potential, comparable to those of mRNAs, suggesting that they are actively exported to cytoplasm and translated into short polypeptides, albeit certainly not active.” (ncRNA = non coding RNA; lncRNA = long non coding RNA).
