Currently, several long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) (TUG1, MALAT1, MEG3 and others) have been discovered to regulate normal visual function and may potentially contribute to dysfunction of the retina. We decided to extend these analyses of lncRNA genes to the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) to determine whether there is conservation of RPE-expressed lncRNA between human and bovine genomes. We reconstructed bovine RPE lncRNAs based on genome-guided assembly. Next, we predicted homologous human transcripts based on whole genome alignment. We found a small set of conserved lncRNAs that could be involved in signature RPE functions that are conserved across mammals. However, the fraction of conserved lncRNAs in the overall pool of lncRNA found in RPE appeared to be very small (less than 5%), perhaps reflecting a fast and flexible adaptation of the mammalian eye to various environmental conditions.
