Model of large non-coding RNA function in cis versus trans (a) Cis model: large non-coding RNAs could serve as RNA based tethers to recruit either directly or indirectly epigenetic modifying complexes to the specific location of the RNA. (b) In trans, large non-coding RNAs could possibly target multiple sites of action.
