Long noncoding RNA, PURPL is associated with aneuploidy and its magnitude of expression level is dependent on P53 status.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a fascinating, but still largely uncharacterized, class of genes. Recently, lncRNAs have attracted significant attention due to their emerging functions in development and disease. The role of lncRNAs in chromosome instability or aneuploidy is not extensively studied.

Methods

We started with the objective of characterizing lncRNAs that play an important role in chromosome instability (CIN) or aneuploidy. Here, we report the initial functional characterization of PURPL in the context of chromosomal instability or aneuploidy.

Results

We report the over-expression of lncRNA PURPL in three experimental models of chromosomal instability, or aneuploidy. In addition, the study also showed that the extent or magnitude of PURPL e
