LINC00471
Description
The LINC00471 (long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 471) is a ncRNA gene located on chromosome 2.
LINC00471 is a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) that has been implicated in various biological processes, particularly in cancer development. Studies suggest that it acts as a key regulator of gene expression, potentially influencing cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. It is thought to exert its effects through interactions with other molecules, such as microRNAs (miRNAs), and by influencing chromatin structure. Although LINC00471 does not encode a protein, it is believed to play a crucial role in regulating gene expression and cellular functions.
LINC00471, also known as long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 471, is a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) implicated in a range of biological processes, particularly in cancer development. Studies suggest it acts as a key regulator of gene expression, potentially influencing cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. Although it doesn't encode a protein, LINC00471 is thought to exert its effects through interactions with other molecules, such as microRNAs (miRNAs), and by influencing chromatin structure. Further research is ongoing to elucidate the precise mechanisms by which LINC00471 exerts its biological roles and its potential as a therapeutic target.
LINC00471 is also known as C2orf52.
