ST7-AS1


Description

The ST7-AS1 (ST7 antisense RNA 1) is a ncRNA gene located on chromosome 7.

ST7-AS1 is a long non-coding RNA, also known as ST7 antisense RNA 1. It's located on chromosome 7 in humans, near a breakpoint linked to autism. This means its position on the chromosome is close to a spot where chromosomes can break and rearrange, which can be associated with certain conditions like autism. It's also called an 'antisense' RNA because it's located on the opposite strand of DNA from the ST7 gene.

ST7-AS1 is a long non-coding RNA, which means it doesn't get translated into a protein. Instead, it plays a role in regulating other genes. It's located on chromosome 7 and has been linked to autism because its location is near a breakpoint in the chromosome that's associated with the disorder.

ST7-AS1 is also known as ST7AS1, ST7OT1.
