Global ncRNA – mRNA coexpression network. The global network presents an only fully-connected component (A) wired by ncRNA – mRNA correlations below −0.42. The node degree distribution is represented in a logarithmic scale in both axes and fits a negative power law (B). The 15 nodes (ncRNAs all of them) with a combined centrality value (betweeness centrality * outdegree) above 8.6 (percentile 0.975) (C) and their first neighbors form the core subnetwork (D).
