DBH-AS1


Description

The DBH-AS1 (DBH antisense RNA 1) is a ncRNA gene located on chromosome 9.

DBH-AS1 is a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) transcribed from the opposite strand of the dopamine beta-hydroxylase (DBH) gene. It has been shown to regulate DBH expression, potentially by influencing its transcription or translation. Further research is needed to understand the specific mechanisms and implications of DBH-AS1's regulatory role.

DBH-AS1, also known as dopamine beta-hydroxylase antisense RNA 1, is a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) that is transcribed from the opposite strand of the dopamine beta-hydroxylase (DBH) gene. DBH-AS1 has been shown to regulate the expression of DBH, which is a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of norepinephrine, a neurotransmitter involved in a wide range of physiological processes including stress response, attention, and mood. Studies have suggested that DBH-AS1 may act as a negative regulator of DBH expression, potentially by affecting its transcription or translation. Further research is needed to fully elucidate the specific mechanisms by which DBH-AS1 influences DBH expression and its implications for human health.

DBH-AS1 is also known as NCRNA00118.
