FAM238C

Summary

FAM238C (family with sequence similarity 238 member C, HGNC:24672) is a unprocessed pseudogene on chromosome 10p12.1.

At a glance

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

Regulation

Is transcription factor: no

Literature-anchored findings (GeneRIF, showing 1)

• high LINC00202 levels are correlated with poor prognosis in RB, and it promotes RB progression by sponging miR-3619-5p and therefore up-regulating RIN1 expression (PMID:30905893)
