Assume I have a non coding gene and a coding gene that are located in close proximity on the same strand but are transcribed in opposite directions... Is this possible? I think not because RNA-polymerase goes only in one direction... However, Bidirectional LncRNAs are divergent with the protein-coding gene and are oriented head to head with a protein-coding gene within 1,000 bp (http://www.arraystar.com/Services/Services_main.asp?ID=248)... Can somebody explain how this is possible?
