Summary
MEIKIN-AS1 (MEIKIN and ACSL6 antisense RNA 1, HGNC:40771) is a long non-coding RNA gene on chromosome 5q31.1.
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).
