Mutations within lncRNAs are effectively selected against in fruitfly but not in human.
BACKGROUND: Previous studies in Drosophila and mammals have revealed levels of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) sequence conservation that are intermediate between neutrally evolving and protein-coding sequence. These analyses compared conservation between species that diverged up to 75 million years...
