A subset of conserved mammalian long non-coding RNAs are fossils of ancestral protein-coding genes

BACKGROUND: Only a small portion of human long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) appear to be conserved outside of mammals, but the events underlying the birth of new lncRNAs in mammals remain largely unknown. One potential source is remnants of protein-coding genes that transitioned into lncRNAs. RESULTS:...
