Transcriptome analysis reveals the role of long noncoding RNAs in specific deposition of inosine monphosphate in Jingyuan chickens.

ABSTRACT: Inosine monphosphate (IMP) is one of the important indicators for evaluating meat flavor, and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play an important role in its transcription and post-transcriptional regulation. Currently, there is little information about how lncRNA regulates the specific deposition of IMP in chicken muscle. In this study, we used transcriptome sequencing to analyze the lncRNAs of the breast and leg muscles of the Jingyuan chicken and identified a total of 357 differentially expressed lncRNAs (DELs), of which 158 were up-regulated and 199 were down-regulated. There were 2,203 and 7,377 cis- and trans-regulated target genes of lncRNAs, respectively, and we identified the lncRNA target genes that are involved in NEGF signaling pathway, glycolysis/glucoseogenesis, and biosynthesis
