CNTN4-AS1
Description
The CNTN4-AS1 (CNTN4 antisense RNA 1) is a ncRNA gene located on chromosome 3.
CNTN4-AS1 is a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) that is located in the intron of the CNTN4 gene. It is expressed in various tissues, including the brain, heart, and skeletal muscle. CNTN4-AS1 has been implicated in the regulation of gene expression and cellular processes. Studies have shown that CNTN4-AS1 can act as a sponge for microRNAs (miRNAs), thereby preventing these miRNAs from binding to their target mRNAs. This can lead to the upregulation of the target genes. For example, CNTN4-AS1 has been shown to sponge miR-132, leading to the upregulation of the CNTN4 gene. Additionally, CNTN4-AS1 has been implicated in the regulation of cell proliferation, apoptosis, and migration. The exact mechanisms by which CNTN4-AS1 exerts its functions are not fully understood, but it is thought to act through interactions with other RNA molecules and proteins.
