Long Noncoding RNAs in Yeast Cells and Differentiated Subpopulations of Yeast Colonies and Biofilms

Figure 2

lncRNAs detected in subpopulations of aged yeast colony cells. DE gene and DE lncRNA loci were identified that were located within 1.5 kB of one another in 5 different orientations (a). The numbers of antiregulated (b) and coregulated (c) lncRNA/gene pairs were compared for the different expression comparisons detailed at the bottom of the figure. Percentages (bars) and numbers (boxes underneath) of different classes of lncRNA upregulated (d) or downregulated (e) in each sample as well as the percentages (bars) and numbers (boxes) of antiregulated (f) and coregulated (g) lncRNA/gene pairs are given for each comparison. Abbreviations: asOver: antisense-overlapping; asConv: antisense-convergent; asDiv: antisense-divergent; tandem3: tandem to (sense strand) and downstream of gene; tandem5: tandem to (sense strand) and upstream of gene; SUT: stable unannotated transcript; MUT: meiotic unstable transcript; XUT: Xrn1-dependent unstable transcript; CUT: cryptic unannotated transcript.
