One of the most extensively studied of lncRNAs is Metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1, ENSG00000251562), located in human chromosome 11q13.1 (mouse chromosome 19qA); MALAT1 is also known as nuclear-enriched abundant transcript first described to be associated with non-small cell lung cancer (10–12). Here, MALAT1 is linked to non-small cell lung carcinoma.
