COL4A2-AS1
Description
The COL4A2-AS1 (COL4A2 antisense RNA 1) is a ncRNA gene located on chromosome 13.
COL4A2-AS1 is a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) that is located on chromosome 13 in humans. It is transcribed from the antisense strand of the COL4A2 gene, which encodes the alpha 2 chain of type IV collagen. COL4A2-AS1 is highly expressed in various tissues, including the brain, heart, and kidneys. Studies have suggested that COL4A2-AS1 may be involved in the regulation of COL4A2 expression, although its exact mechanism of action is still unknown.
COL4A2-AS1 is a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) that has been shown to be involved in the regulation of collagen type IV alpha 2 chain (COL4A2) expression. It has been proposed to act as a sponge for microRNAs, sequestering them away from their target mRNAs and thereby affecting their downstream signaling pathways. Studies have suggested that COL4A2-AS1 may be implicated in various cellular processes, including proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. Its role in specific diseases, such as cancer, is still under investigation, but there are indications of potential involvement.
COL4A2-AS1 is also known as -.
