More than 98% of the human genome are non-coding regions, which generate vast non-coding RNAs through pervasive transcription. Non-coding RNAs play crucial roles in regulating various life activities such as differentiation, development, aging, and disease. Unlike messenger RNA, non-coding RNA fulfil its regulatory function by forming higher-order spatial conformation and interacting with other RNA molecules. Therefore, my research interests include: 1) decipher the in situ structure of non-coding RNAs; 2) profile the interacting partners of non-coding RNA, especially the targets of enhancer or promoter related RNAs; 3) investigate the functional mechanism and pathogenesis of non-coding RNAs.
