geneOn this page
Also known as CTC-467M3.1
Summary
MEF2C-AS2 (MEF2C antisense RNA 2, HGNC:53115) is a long non-coding RNA gene on chromosome 5q14.3.
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).
