CANCER SUSCEPTIBILITY CANDIDATE 11, NONCODING; CASC11


Alternative titles; symbols

LONG INTERGENIC NONCODING RNA 990; LINC00990
lincRNA 990
CANCER-ASSOCIATED REGION LONG NONCODING RNA 7; CARLO7


HGNC Approved Gene Symbol: CASC11

Cytogenetic location: 8q24.21     Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 8:127,700,608-127,733,967 (from NCBI)


TEXT

Description

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), such as CASC11, are transcripts longer than 200 bp that have no protein-coding potential and function in various cellular processes (Kim et al., 2014).


Cloning and Expression

By sequence analysis and RACE with human colorectal cancer-derived cells, Kim et al. (2014) identified several lncRNAs, including CASC11, which they called CARLO7, in a region of chromosome 8q24.21 that harbors cancer-associated variants and enhancer activity. They obtained 3 CARLO7 variants.


Gene Structure

Kim et al. (2014) reported that CASC11 contains at least 6 exons.


Mapping

By sequence analysis, Kim et al. (2014) mapped the CASC11 gene to a region of chromosome 8q24.21 that lacks protein-coding genes.
