Functional interactions between the different classes of noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs). Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), mRNAs, microRNAs (miRNAs), and circular RNAs (circRNAs) are all transcribed from genomic DNA. lncRNAs and mRNAs can be translated into polypeptides. The green arrows indicate “activation.” The blue lines indicate “inhibition.” Dashed lines indicate that the nature of the interaction is still unknown.
