LncRNA THOR regulates spermatogenesis by interacting with and stabilizing Sycp3 protein in zebrafish.

THOR (testis-associated highly conserved oncogenic long non-coding RNA) is a highly conserved and testis-enriched lncRNA across vertebrates that plays diverse roles in various cancers. However, its physiological function and regulatory mechanism in testes remain largely unknown. Here, we investigated the genomic locati...
