Classification of genomic architecture classes involving gene pairs of lncRNAs and protein-coding genes. The 19 architectures (in rows) describing co-localization of lncRNAs with protein-coding genes. Left column contains the name of the architecture; central column contains a schematic drawing representing; right column contains a short description of the architecture. Note: the 'left' and the 'right' architecture classes represent the localization of the protein-coding gene boundaries relative to the lncRNA gene boundaries on the plus DNA strand, regardless of the sense or antisense orientation of both genes.
