Organization of the Caenorhabditis elegans small non-coding transcriptome: Genomic features, biogenesis, and expression

By performing a systematic analysis on a mass of non-protein coding transcripts extracted from C. elegans, Prof. Runsheng Chen's group has found 100 novel ncRNA genes in the C. elegans genome, and identified two novel ncRNA classes (stem-bulge RNA and small nuclear-like RNA) and three ncRNA upstream motifs. Their analysis indicated that ncRNA has an independent transcriptional regulation system which is different from that of protein coding genes.
