PCAT19

Description

The PCAT19 (prostate cancer associated transcript 19) is a ncRNA gene located on chromosome 19.

PCAT19 is a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) that is located on chromosome 8. It is transcribed from the PCAT19 gene and is 1,373 nucleotides in length. PCAT19 has been shown to be differentially expressed in a variety of human cancers, including prostate cancer, breast cancer, and lung cancer. Its function is not fully understood, but it is thought to play a role in regulating gene expression.

PCAT19, also known as prostate cancer associated transcript 19, is a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) that has been implicated in a variety of biological processes, including cell growth, proliferation, and apoptosis. Studies have shown that PCAT19 expression is often dysregulated in cancer, suggesting that it may play a role in tumorigenesis. For example, PCAT19 expression is elevated in some types of prostate cancer, and its knockdown can inhibit cancer cell growth. PCAT19 may also be involved in other diseases, such as cardiovascular disease and neurodegenerative diseases, but more research is needed to understand its specific roles in these conditions.

PCAT19 is also known as LINC01190.
