BCYRN1-The shortest, long, non-coding RNA associated with cancer

Annotated Information

Approved Symbol

BCYRN1

Name

BCYRN1: brain cytoplasmic RNA 1 [1][2] BC200 [1][2]

Characteristics

BCYRN1 is a shortest known long noncoding RNA with a length of 200bps[3]. BCYRN1 is sense-transcribed from its gene locus situated on human chromosome 2 between the protein-coding genes for calmodulin 2 (CALM2) and epithelial cellular adhesion molecule (EPCAM)[1][2]. BCYRN1 is relatively recent, no orthologs of BCYRN1 have been identified outside of the primate order [4]. BCYRN1 is found in the primate brain, Among neural cells, BCYRN1 is highly expressed in dendrites, where is it thought to play a role in local translational control [3]. BCYRN1 is a tissue-specific Pol III transcript, altering the view that Pol III was only responsible for the synthesis of transfer RNA (tRNA) and 5 S ribosomal RNA [5][6][7]. BCYRN1 RNA sequence revealed three distinct sequence domains: a 5′ Alu element, a central adenosine-rich region and a 3′, 43-nucleotide, unique region containing a cytosine-rich stretch [8]. BCYRN1 has a 5′ Alu element that has very high sequence homology to the Alu-J repetitive element found in the human genome and the Alu domain of 7SL RNA [8].

Function

BCYRN1 is important in several key features of cancer – like cell proliferation, survival and migration [3] BCYRN1 may act as a linker between certain proteins and mRNAs, allowing transient regulation and/or modification [3] BCYRN1 exerts its translational inhibitory effects by acting as a competitor for PABP [9] BCYRN1and BC1 interfere with eIF4A's catalytic mechanism by blocking the factor's helicase activity, while enhancing its ATPase activity [10] BCYRN1 is linked wit necrosis [3]

Regulation

TATA box and internal promoter elements play a critical role in transcription of BCYRN1 [3]

Expression

long noncoding RNA BCYRN1 is expressed predominantly in different regions of the brain. It also shows low level expression in testis but not in other normal tissues examined [3] [8] BCYRN1 is disregulated in cancer and is expressed in a number of human tumours but not in corresponding normal [3] BCYRN1 expression decreases with aging but is upregulated in Alzheimer's disease (AD). In AD affected brain regions, expression increased with disease severity [3] BCYRN1 also suggested to localise to dendrites [3]

Disease

  • Alzheimer's disease [3]
  • Breast cancer [3]
  • Cervix cancer [3]
  • Colon cancer [3]
  • Lung cancer [3]
  • Oesophagus cancer [3]
  • Ovary cancer [3]
  • Parotid cancer [3]
  • Stomach cancer [3]
  • Tongue cancer [3]
