VIRMA-DT

Summary

VIRMA-DT (VIRMA divergent transcript, HGNC:55531) is a long non-coding RNA gene on chromosome 8q22.1.

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).
