Summary
This gene produces a long non-coding RNA that promotes cell proliferation. This transcript may interact with enhancer of zeste homolog 2 Polycomb repressive complex to repress gene expression. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2017]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
