MORC2-AS1


Description

The MORC2-AS1 (MORC2 antisense RNA 1) is a ncRNA gene located on chromosome 22.

MORC2-AS1 is a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) that has been implicated in a variety of cellular processes, including cell proliferation, apoptosis, and migration. It is thought to function as a molecular sponge, binding to and sequestering microRNAs (miRNAs) that would otherwise target and regulate the expression of protein-coding genes. Studies have shown that MORC2-AS1 can affect the expression of genes involved in cancer development and progression, suggesting a potential role in tumorigenesis. However, its exact mechanisms of action and specific biological functions are still being investigated.
