LOC101927189
Description
The LOC101927189 (-) is a ncRNA gene located on chromosome 6.
This gene plays a crucial role in the development of muscle cells (myoblasts) into mature muscle fibers (myotubes). It might act as a regulator of gene expression during this process. Furthermore, it's involved in how the heart adapts to stress by influencing important signaling pathways (AKT/mTOR and FOXO1). This gene helps maintain normal heart function and protects against enlargement of the heart (hypertrophy). It binds to DNA and may act as a helper protein for other proteins that control gene activity, potentially repressing the activity of ISL1 and MYOCD.
LOC101927189 is also known as -.
