MAPKAPK5-AS1
Description
The MAPKAPK5-AS1 (MAPKAPK5 antisense RNA 1) is a ncRNA gene located on chromosome 12.
MAPKAPK5-AS1 is a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) located on chromosome 17. LncRNAs are a class of RNA molecules that do not code for proteins but are involved in regulating cellular processes. The specific function of MAPKAPK5-AS1 is under investigation, but studies suggest that it may play a role in regulating gene expression and cellular processes. Some studies have linked MAPKAPK5-AS1 to cancer development and progression, while others suggest its involvement in inflammation and immune responses.
The functional role of MAPKAPK5-AS1 is not yet fully understood. However, studies suggest that it may play a role in regulating gene expression and cellular processes. One study found that MAPKAPK5-AS1 is upregulated in colorectal cancer and promotes cell proliferation and invasion. Another study suggests that MAPKAPK5-AS1 may be involved in regulating inflammation and immune responses.
MAPKAPK5-AS1 is also known as C12orf47, MAAS.
