CanLncG4 dataset

Posted on 2025-02-25 - 15:31 authored by Shubham Sharma

Dysregulated expression of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in cancer contributes to various hallmarks of the disease, presenting novel opportunities for diagnosis and therapy. G-quadruplexes (G4s) within lncRNAs have gained attention recently; however, their systematic evaluation in cancer biology is yet to be performed. In this work, we formulate CanLncG4, a comprehensive dataset integrating experimentally-validated associations between lncRNAs and cancer, and detailed predictions of their G4-forming potential. The dataset categorizes predicted G4-motifs into anticipated G4 types (2G, 2G, and 4G) and provides information about the subcellular localization of the corresponding lncRNAs. It describes lncRNA-RNA and lncRNA-protein interactions, together with the RNA G4-binding capabilities of these proteins. We also investigate the experimental application and reliability of the dataset in predicting G4s through in vitro experiments, affirming the presence of G4s within specific cancer-dysregulated lncRNAs. CanLncG4, thus, facilitates the investigation of G4-mediated lncRNA functions in diverse human cancers and provides distinctive leads about G4-mediated lncRNA-protein interactions.
