SNHG21


Description

The SNHG21 (small nucleolar RNA host gene 21) is a ncRNA gene located on chromosome 15.

SNHG21 is a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) gene. It's considered a 'housekeeping' gene, meaning it's expressed in most tissues. Studies show it might be involved in gene regulation, influencing cell growth and development. Some research links SNHG21 to cancer development, indicating its potential role in cellular processes related to uncontrolled cell growth.

The exact functions of SNHG21 are still being investigated, but research suggests it might play a role in regulating gene expression, potentially influencing cell growth and development. Some studies link SNHG21 to cancer development, indicating its potential involvement in cellular processes related to uncontrolled cell growth.

SNHG21 is also known as FSD2-AS1, SCARNA15HG.
