FAM242E

Summary

FAM242E (family with sequence similarity 242 member E, HGNC:53875) is a long non-coding RNA gene on chromosome 9q13.

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).
