The paper shows that cytoplasmic lncRNAs in yeast are translated, affecting their abundance and post-transcriptional regulation through mechanisms involving NMD and ribosome binding.

The paper shows that Dicer processes antisense lncRNAs into small RNAs in RNAi-capable yeast, with implications for the evolution of antisense transcriptomes.

The paper identifies Dal80 GATA factor binding sites in yeast using ChIP-Seq and shows its association with gene bodies and high expression levels.

This paper investigates how antisense long non-coding RNAs (asXUTs) regulate gene expression in fission yeast by stabilizing Exo2-sensitive asXUTs, leading to transcriptional attenuation of paired-sense genes.

The paper shows that HDAC-dependent histone deacetylation is critical for transcriptional silencing of facultative heterochromatin in fission yeast.
