The how and why of lncRNA function: An innate immune perspective() 2019-09-02 .txt text/plain 13173 715 44 Using this extensively studied biological system, we identified the first example of a TLR-stimulated lncRNA, lincRNA-Cox2, which was capable of positively and negatively regulating distinct types of innate immune genes [42] [43] [44] [45] [46] . The majority of lncRNAs studied in immunity were initially identified following RNA-sequencing to examine their expression profiles in specific cell lines or tissues during inflammatory activation. Hence future studies may opt to target TF binding sites, secondary structure and/or polyadenylation sites as a way to more finely dissect the functional portions of lncRNAs. The ease in which Cas9 can be targeted to specific genomic regions sparked the development of a modified (catalytically inactivated) version of the protein fused to the KRAB (Krüppel associated box) chromatin-silencing domain termed CRISPRi [174, 175] (Fig. 3C) .
