More Details: Small proteins encoded by previously assumed non-coding RNAs can have cell regulatory functions. Here the authors report that TINCR lncRNA encodes pTINCR, a ubiquitin-like protein (UBL) that promotes epithelial differentiation through the SUMOylation and activation of CDC42, and it has tumour suppressor activity in epithelial cancers.
