MIR17
Description
The MIR17 (microRNA 17) is a ncRNA gene located on chromosome 13.
miR-17 is a microRNA that plays a critical role in regulating cell proliferation, apoptosis, and differentiation. It is involved in a variety of biological processes and is implicated in various diseases, including cancer. miR-17 is encoded by the MIR17HG gene, which is located on chromosome 13. It has been shown to play a complex and often context-dependent role in various biological processes, highlighting the intricate nature of gene regulation through microRNAs.
miR-17 is involved in a variety of cellular processes, including proliferation, apoptosis, and differentiation. It has been implicated in the development of various cancers, including leukemia, lymphoma, and lung cancer. miR-17 is also involved in the regulation of the immune system and has been linked to autoimmune diseases.
MIR17 is also known as MIR17-5p, MIR91, MIRN17, MIRN91, hsa-mir-17, miR-17, miR17-3p, miRNA17, miRNA91.
