Among these three lncRNAs, only LINC01271 is transcribed in the same direction as MaTAR25. Analysis of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) data30 suggests two of these potential orthologs, LINC01270 and LINC01271, are expressed at increased levels in multiple subtypes of breast cancer (Fig. 6a). The gene discussed is LINC01270; the disease is breast cancer.
