Location And Expression Of Lincrna

Question

[Stephanhart]

Is there any software/script available for identifying long intergenic non coding RNAs that may be, from evidence of location and expression, functionally linked to protein-coding regions? The raw data I'm working with is RNA-seq.

The following article should give you a very good starting point on identifying lincRNAs:

You can also try the FunctionalRNA Database and the download section.
