Bio-types of lncRNAs and enhancer-derived lncRNA function. a Different bio-types of lncRNAs based on their genomic location include antisense, intergenic, intronic, divergent and enhancer-derived lncRNAs. lncRNAs are depicted in blue, while protein-coding genes are shown in green. b The postulated role of enhancer-derived lncRNAs for both cis- and trans-mediated regulation of target genes is shown via chromatin loop formation.
