SLC45A4-AS2

Summary

SLC45A4-AS2 (SLC45A4 antisense RNA 2, HGNC:58259) is a long non-coding RNA gene on chromosome 8q24.3.

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).
