Long non-coding-RNAs (lncRNAs) are an expanding set of cis-/trans-regulatory RNA genes that outnumber the protein-coding genes. Although being increasingly discovered, the functional role of the majority of lncRNAs in diverse biological conditions is undefined. Increasing evidence supports the critical role of lncRNAs in the emergence, regulation, and progression of various viral infections including influenza, hepatitis, coronavirus, and human immunodeficiency virus.
