LINC02961

Summary

LINC02961 (long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 2961, HGNC:55986) is a long non-coding RNA gene on chromosome 1q42.3.

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).
