摘要
Eukaryotic transcriptomes are considerably larger than estimated from simple gene counts. However, much of this 'excess' RNA is immediately cleared from cells. Two recent studies reveal that so-called cryptic unstable transcripts constitutively transcribed from the yeast genome are rapidly eliminated in a process that couples transcription termination to RNA degradation.
