摘要: Previous research into the molecular mechanisms that underlie Ag-specific CD8+ T cell differentiation and function has largely focused on role of proteins. However, it is now apparent mammalian genome expresses large numbers long (>200 nt) nonprotein-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), there increasing evidence these have important regulatory functions, particularly in regulation epigenetic processes underpinning differentiation. In this study, we show cells express hundreds ncRNAs, many which are lymphoid-specific and/or change dynamically with lymphocyte or activation. Numerous ncRNAs surround overlap immunologically protein-coding genes can be predicted to via a range mechanisms. The expressed microRNAs small interfering further suggests may processed exert their effects smaller functional species. Finally, majority harbor signatures evolutionary conservation, secondary structures, regulated promoters, supporting functionality. Taken together, our findings represent first systematic discovery suggest transcripts likely play adaptive immunity.
