Antisense RNA 1 and its function

Antisense RNA 1 (AS1) is a class of RNA molecule that is derived from a non-coding RNA template and has the ability to interact with specific mRNAs to either enhance or inhibit their translation into proteins. These interactions between AS1 and target mRNAs are often accompanied by changes in gene expression levels and can be used as a drug target or a biomarker.

LEMD1-AS1 is a non-coding RNA molecule that has been shown to interact with the protein encoded by the LEMD1 gene, which is located on chromosome 18q22. The LEMD1 gene is known to be involved in the development and progression of various diseases, including cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and autoimmune disorders.

The interaction between LEMD1-AS1 and LEMD1 protein has been shown to play a role in the regulation of gene expression and can potentially serve as a drug target or biomarker.

Drug targeting LEMD1-AS1
