HTR5A-AS1
Description
The HTR5A-AS1 (HTR5A antisense RNA 1) is a ncRNA gene located on chromosome 7.
HTR5A-AS1 is a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) located on chromosome 11. It's transcribed from the antisense strand of the serotonin 5-HT receptor gene (HTR5A), suggesting a potential link to serotonin signaling. HTR5A-AS1 is expressed in various tissues and cell types, but its specific function is still under investigation.
The exact function of HTR5A-AS1 is still under investigation, but research suggests it might play a role in regulating the expression of the serotonin 5-HT receptor gene (HTR5A). This regulation could be achieved through various mechanisms like influencing the transcription of HTR5A, affecting its mRNA stability, or even modulating the translation of its protein. Further studies are needed to fully understand the intricate mechanisms of HTR5A-AS1 and its impact on serotonin signaling.
HTR5A-AS1 is also known as HTR5AOS.
