LINC02944

Summary

LINC02944 (long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 2944, HGNC:55959) is a long non-coding RNA gene on chromosome 10q26.11.

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).
