Identification and Characterization of Long Non-Coding RNA (lncRNA)

Identification and Characterization of Long Non-Coding RNA (lncRNA)

Inquiry

The ubiquitous transcription of genomes generates large amounts of non-coding RNAs. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are usually defined as transcripts that are more than 200 nucleotides in length and do not have any protein-coding potential. Computational methods have identified a large number of lncRNAs in different plant species. LncRNAs perform their functions by interacting with DNA, RNA, and protein molecules and regulating the expression levels of their targets through epigenetic, transcriptional, post-transcriptional, or translational regulation. With advances in next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies, it has been discovered that a large number of lncRNAs in plants are involved in a wide range of biological processes, including regulation of flowering time and reproductive organ morphogenesis, abiotic and biotic stress responses, leaf development, growth hormone signaling, and photomorphogenesis.

Our long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) identification and characterization solution

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a critical role in plant development. However, information on lncRNAs in most plant species remains largely unexplored. CD Genomics provides whole genome analysis of lncRNAs in a variety of crops, including maize, rice, castor bean, rapeseed, Cajanus cajan (pigeon pea), Jatropha curcus, and Paeonia suffruticosa ( tree peony), etc. Our NGS high-throughput sequencing technology and transcriptome (RNA-seq) analysis can identify more lncRNAs in crops. In addition, our sequencing and bioinformatics approaches allow us to functionally annotate the targets of differentially expressed lncRNAs to examine their possible roles in plant development.

LncRNA for Molecular breeding

Many lncRNAs can regulate important agronomic traits in crops, and we are committed to identifying important lncRNA breeding targets and applying them in crop cultivation and breeding to improve crop quality and performance. Our services are designed to help you systematically study lncRNAs in plant development and analyze the function and developmental regulation of plant lncRNAs.
