Summary
CT66 (cancer/testis associated transcript 66, HGNC:54198) is a long non-coding RNA gene on chromosome 7q11.22.
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).
