Themes in lncRNA functions. LncRNAs have been described to play multiple roles affecting gene expression at the transcriptional level via interactions with chromatin remodelling complexes, direct binding to the DNA as an RNA–DNA triplex, or facilitating chromatin looping (a), interacting with RNA processing machinery or affecting mRNA stability (b) or directly regulating protein function (c).
