HIF1α-AS1 is a DNA:DNA:RNA triplex-forming lncRNA interacting with the HUSH complex

Using a composite bioinformatics approach, the DNA:DNA:RNA triplex-forming lncRNAs HIF1α-AS1 was identified in human endothelial cells which recruits an epigenetic silencing complex to limit expression of triplex target genes.
