Abstract
Serum starvation is widely used in cell biology to trigger cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, autophagy, and metabolic adaptations. Serum starvation-related molecular events have been well characterized at protein level but not at transcript level: how long non-coding RNAs contribute to the regulation of protein-coding genes is largely unknown. Here, we captured the lncRNA transcriptome in serum starved mouse embryonic fibroblasts and identified three main modes of action: cis-acting/coregulatory, trans-acting, and “miRNA-carrier”. Whole-genome and individual gene level analyses support that our annotation provides an important platform for understanding lncRNA/protein-coding gene coregulatory mechanisms in serum starvation.
