What's a GeneRIF?

lncRNA DIRC3 regulates invasiveness and insulin-like growth factor signaling in thyroid cancer cells.
Title: lncRNA DIRC3 regulates invasiveness and insulin-like growth factor signaling in thyroid cancer cells.
DIRC3 depletion in human melanoma cells leads to increased anchorage-independent growth, a hallmark of malignant transformation, whilst melanoma patients classified by low DIRC3 expression have decreased survival. These results suggest that DIRC3 may be a novel clinically important melanoma tumor suppressor gene.
Title: The MITF-SOX10 regulated long non-coding RNA DIRC3 is a melanoma tumour suppressor.
SNPs rs11903757, with closest proximity to NABP1 and SDPR, and rs966423 in DIRC3, were associated with survival in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma patients.
Title: DIRC3 and near NABP1 genetic polymorphisms are associated laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma patient survival.

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.
