Recent studies have provided novel insight into the biogenesis of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and their specific functions. The functions of lncRNAs vary from transcriptional and post-transcriptional gene regulation to the assembly and function of membraneless nuclear bodies, and are relevant to neuronal disorders, immune responses and cancer.
