BALR6

Summary

BALR6 (B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia associated long RNA 6, HGNC:27946) is a long non-coding RNA gene on chromosome 3p24.3.

At a glance

• Gene type: non-coding (lncRNA) — no protein product; not a drug target. Variant/disease associations are omitted (they would be positional, from an overlapping protein-coding gene).
