Abstract
Advances in research technology with systematic and unbiased measurements of transcriptional activity revealed the surprising fact of pervasive transcription of mammalian genomes. However, most of these transcripts are not obviously protein coding nor do they reveal easily inferable biological relevance and thus have been termed “noncoding”. This universe of noncoding RNAs with diverse and versatile families such as transfer RNAs (tRNA), ribosomal RNAs (rRNA), micro-RNAs (miRNA) small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNA) has fuelled an entire new branch of research and already challenged major dogmas in molecular biology. Among the diverse classes of noncoding RNAs, long noncoding RNAs (lncRNA) have emerged as major regulators of transcription, nucleolar organization, and chromatin-modifying complexes. The goal of this chapter is to present the state of research of lncRNAs in the context of heart disease and heart failure.
