Recombinant Chromosomes Resulting From Parental Pericentric Inversions-Two New Cases and a Review of the Literature.

abstract：:Technological advances over the past decade have unraveled the remarkable complexity of RNA. The identification of small peptides encoded by long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) as well as regulatory functions mediated by non-coding regions of mRNAs have further complicated our understanding of the multifaceted functions of...
