Previous research into the molecular mechanisms that underlie Ag-specific CD8(+) T cell differentiation and function has largely focused on the role of proteins. However, it is now apparent that the mammalian genome expresses large numbers of long (>200 nt) nonprotein-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), and there is increasing evidence that these RNAs have important regulatory functions, particularly in the regulation of epigenetic processes underpinning cell differentiation. In this study, we show that CD8(+ ...[more]
