LincRNA: epigenetic changes, maintenance of pluripotency and lineage commitment control.

NATs: alternative splicing, translation control, RNA interference, X-chromosome inactivation.

lintRNA: chromatin modification and organization, guidance of ribonucleoproteins and creation of scaffolds for their assembly. Overlapping: Chromatin modification.
