Forensic Context

A study in mice demonstrated that the LINC01159 is important for embryonic patterning in certain areas of projection neurons [Flynn and Chang DOI:10.1016/j.stem.2014.05.014], and it is required for life and brain development in mice [Mattick et al. DOI:10.1038/s41580-022-00566-8].
