Research at the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) in Barcelona, Spain and the Wistar Institute in Philadelphia, USA has revealed a novel mechanism for the control of human genes. The work, published in Cell, present an anticipated mode of regulation of some processes such as differentiation and development or oncogenesis. Thanks to the new technological advances in genome sequencing, we know that a major portion of the genome is being transcribed but only a small portion of this transcriptome contains the protein-coding sequences...
