Summary
LINC00879 (long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 879, HGNC:48566) is a long non-coding RNA gene on chromosome 3q11.2.
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).
