Sense-overlapping lncRNA as a decoy of translational repressor protein for dimorphic gene expression.
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are vastly transcribed and extensively studied but lncRNAs overlapping with the sense orientation of mRNA have been poorly studied. We analyzed the lncRNA DAPALR overlapping with the 5´ UTR of the Doublesex1 (Dsx1), the male determining gene in Daphnia magna. By affinit...
