Micropeptides derived from long non-coding RNAs: Computational analysis and functional roles in breast cancer and other diseases.

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), once thought to be mere transcriptional noise, are now revealing a hidden code. Recent advancements like ribosome sequencing have unveiled that many lncRNAs harbor small open reading frames and can potentially encode functional micropeptides. Emerging research suggests these micropeptides, not the lncRNAs themselves, play crucial roles in regulating homeostasis, inflammation, metabolism, and especially in breast cancer progression.
