LINC02599, long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 2599 with a critical role in TGF-β-induced EMT.

Annotated Information

Name

LINC02599: long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 2599 (HGNC:53931)

Alias

AC026904.1

Characteristics

LINC02599 is a lncRNA gene with a little or no protein coding potential located at chromosomal location 8q11.21. RNA-FISH data showed that AC026904.1 was highly enriched in the nucleus. It could used as novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets for metastatic breast cancer. [1]


Function

This lncRNA functions as an enhancer RNA (eRNA) to activate Slug expression at both transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels in cis in breast cancer. Because AC026904.1 is a lncRNA highly enriched in the nucleus it may act to regulate its neighboring genes. [1]


Regulation

LINC02599 is regulated by TGF-β. It is upregulated through TGF-β/Smad pathway in breast cancer. [1]


Expression

LINC02599 is highly expressed in metastatic breast cancer and closely associated with poor prognosis.[1]


Disease

Breast cancer [1]
