About this book
Reviews
“The book ‘Long Noncoding RNAs Structures and Functions’ introduces long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) and outlines molecular mechanisms of their activity and potential biological function, mostly associated with transcriptional or epigenetic regulation. … This book reflects needs of understanding of lncRNAs function and provides a valuable summary of available information.” (Dana Jurkovicova, Neoplasma, Vol. 63 (2), 2016)
