Detection Of Linc Noncoding Rna

I am trying to find how best I can design an experiment to detect linc noncoding RNA, Even though it is not related to downstream aspects per se, but before coming into real bioinformatics I am getting confused whether I am able to really detect and quantify such noncoding RNA or not. So far as I have read various papers have published using some kine of Ribo depletion and followed by RNA-seq which may obviously give me linc RNA. However following two posts (looks like users are quite expert in this filed), suggest otherwise

How To Design A Long Noncoding Rna Detection And Quantification Experiment

It appear that simple enrichment with ribo-depletion is not very relevant. Any suggestion what should be the best way to go - just ribodepleted or both polA vs Ribo-depleted libraries should be best to detect linc noncoding RNA.

Thanks Honey

As you can see my answer in one of the links you provided, how one can extract lincRNAs from RNA-Seq. Regarding polyA vs ribo-depleted, can't you do both ?

I am open to do both However I am looking struggling with the fact how it can benefit me. Since till to date most of publications are suggesting just do Ribo-depleted and look for linc-noncoding RNA. If you want we can discuss it in more detail off the forum @ honeyakshi@yahoo.com

Thanks
