XIST is a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) that mediates transcriptional silencing of X chromosome genes. Here we show that XIST is highly methylated with at least 78 N6-methyladenosine (m6A) residues, a reversible base modification whose function in lncRNAs is unknown. We show that m6A formation in XIS...

While thousands of large intergenic non-coding RNAs (lincRNAs) have been identified in mammals, few have been functionally characterized leading to debate about their biological role. To address this, we performed loss-of-function studies on most lincRNAs expressed in mouse embryonic stem cells (ESC...
ORGANISM(S): Mus musculus 
Recently, more than a thousand large intergenic non-coding RNAs (lincRNAs) have been reported. These RNAs are evolutionarily conserved in mammalian genomes and thus presumably function in diverse biological processes. Here, we report the identification of lincRNAs that are regulated by p53. One of ...

There is growing recognition that mammalian cells produce many thousands of large intergenic transcripts. However, the functional significance of these transcripts has been particularly controversial. While there are some well-characterized examples, the vast majority (>95%) show little evidence of ...
ORGANISM(S): Mus musculus 
We recently showed that the mammalian genome encodes more than a thousand large intergenic non-coding RNAs (lincRNAs) that are clearly conserved across mammals and thus functional. Gene expression patterns have implicated these lincRNAs in diverse biological processes including cell cycle regulatio...

We developed a general method based on RNA Antisense Purification (RAP) to identify the intermolecular RNA-RNA interactions of a target RNA (RAP-RNA). RAP-RNA identifies endogenous RNA-RNA complexes through in vivo crosslinking, RNA capture with antisense oligonucleotides, and high-throughput RNA se...

Many large noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) regulate chromatin, but the mechanisms by which they localize to genomic targets remain unexplored. Here we investigate the localization mechanisms of Xist during X-chromosome inactivation (XCI), a paradigm of lncRNA-mediated chromatin regulation. During the maint...
