gene geneOn this page
Summary
HEY2-AS1 (HEY2 antisense RNA 1, HGNC:55652) is a long non-coding RNA gene on chromosome 6q22.31.
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).
