We uncover a cycling and NF-κB-driven lncRNA (named <i>Lnc-UC</i>) that epigenetically modifies transcription of circadian clock gene <i>Rev-erb</i>α, thereby linking circadian clock to colitis. Cycling expression of <i>Lnc-UC</i> is generated by the central clock protein Bmal1 via an E-box element. NF-κB activation in experimental colitis transcriptionally drives <i>Lnc-UC</i> through direct binding to two κB sites. <i>Lnc-UC</i> ablation disrupts colonic expressions of clock genes in mice; par ...[more]
