LINC01956

Summary

LINC01956 (long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 1956, HGNC:52777) is a long non-coding RNA gene on chromosome 2q14.2.

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).
