Abstract:
Long non-coding RNAs(lncRNAs)regulate gene expression at the transcriptional,post-transcription-al,or epigenetic levels,and play crucial roles in tumor cell proliferation,invasion,apoptosis,and metabolism.With ongoing research,an increasing number of human microproteins encoded by lncRNAs have been discovered,although their complete functional characterization remains to be explored.This article reviews the research progress on the func-tions and partial mechanisms of the small integral membrane protein(SMIM)family encoded by lncRNAs in tumor ini-tiation and progression.
