DOCK4-AS1


Description

The DOCK4-AS1 (DOCK4 antisense RNA 1) is a ncRNA gene located on chromosome 7.

DOCK4-AS1 is a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) located on chromosome 19. It is transcribed from the opposite strand of the DOCK4 gene and acts as a regulator of its expression. The exact mechanisms by which DOCK4-AS1 influences DOCK4 expression are still being investigated, but it is believed to involve interactions with microRNAs (miRNAs) and other regulatory elements.

DOCK4-AS1, a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), plays a crucial role in regulating the expression of the DOCK4 gene, which is involved in cell migration and adhesion. Studies have shown that DOCK4-AS1 acts as a sponge for microRNAs (miRNAs), specifically miR-145, which can target and inhibit the expression of DOCK4. By sequestering miR-145, DOCK4-AS1 indirectly promotes the expression of DOCK4, ultimately influencing cell behavior.

DOCK4-AS1 is also known as -.
