PCDH9-AS2


Description

The PCDH9-AS2 (PCDH9 antisense RNA 2) is a ncRNA gene located on chromosome 13.

PCDH9-AS2 is an antisense transcript of the PCDH9 gene, which encodes a protocadherin protein implicated in cell-cell adhesion. It is believed that PCDH9-AS2 might regulate PCDH9's expression via cis-regulation, potentially influencing cell junction formation and neuronal connectivity. However, further research is needed to fully understand its exact function and possible involvement in neurological development or disease.

PCDH9-AS2 is an antisense transcript to PCDH9, a gene encoding a protocadherin protein involved in cell-cell adhesion. PCDH9-AS2 is predicted to regulate the expression of PCDH9 through a mechanism known as cis-regulation, potentially influencing the assembly of cell junctions and neuronal connectivity. Further research is needed to elucidate its precise function and any potential role in neurological development or disease.

PCDH9-AS2 is also known as -.
