BPESC1

Summary

BPESC1 (blepharophimosis, epicanthus inversus and ptosis candidate 1, HGNC:13228) is a long non-coding RNA gene on chromosome 3q23.

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).
