Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), once considered transcriptional noise, have emerged as critical regulators of gene expression and key players in cancer biology. Recent breakthroughs revealed that certain lncRNAs can encode small open reading frame (sORF)-derived peptides, which are now understood to contribute the pathogenesis various cancers. This review synthesizes current knowledge on detection, functional roles, clinical implications lncRNA-encoded peptides cancer. We discuss technological advancements detection validation sORFs, including ribosome profiling mass spectrometry, facilitated discovery these peptides. The roles processes such transcription, translation regulation, signal transduction, metabolic reprogramming explored types potential is highlighted, with a focus their utility diagnostic biomarkers, prognostic indicators, therapeutic targets. challenges future directions translating findings into practice also discussed, need for large-scale validation, development sensitive methods, optimization peptide stability delivery.

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are typically described as RNA transcripts exceeding 200 nucleotides in length, which do not code for proteins. Recent advancements technology, including ribosome sequencing and nascent-chain complex sequencing, have demonstrated that many lncRNAs retain small open reading frames can potentially encode micropeptides. Emerging studies revealed these micropeptides, rather than themselves, responsible vital functions, but limited to regulating homeostasis, managing inflammation the immune system, moderating metabolism, influencing tumor progression. In this review, we initially outline rapidly advancing computational analytical methods public tools predict validate potential encoding of lncRNAs. We then focus on diverse functions micropeptides their underlying mechanisms pathogenesis disease. This review aims elucidate lncRNA-encoded explore applications therapeutic targets cancer.

Pattern recognition receptor–mediated innate immunity is critical for host defense against viruses. A growing number of coding and noncoding genes are found to encode microproteins. However, the landscape functions microproteins in responsive virus infection remain uncharacterized. Here, we systematically identified that vesicular stomatitis infection. conserved endoplasmic reticulum–localized membrane microprotein, MAVI1 (microprotein antiviral 1), was interact with mitochondrion-localized MAVS protein inhibit aggregation type I interferon signaling activation.
