LINC00550

Summary

LINC00550 (long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 550, HGNC:43688) is a long non-coding RNA gene on chromosome 13q21.33.

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).
