ANKRD35 divergent transcript (ANKRD35-DT)

ANKRD35 divergent transcript (ANKRD35-DT) is annotated as a long non-coding RNA gene. lncRNAs such as ANKRD35-DT are DNA regions transcribed into RNA but not translated into proteins. "Divergent transcript" refers to the phenomenon where transcription occurs in opposite directions from a promoter, generating both a protein-coding transcript (e.g., ANKRD35 proper) and a non-coding transcript (ANKRD35-DT)[1]. Most divergent transcripts are unstable and of unknown functional relevance, but some lncRNAs regulate gene expression or chromatin structure[1][5]. There is no evidence that ANKRD35-DT is a protein-coding gene, nor that it functions as a classical pharmacological target (receptor, enzyme, etc.). Its specific molecular function, disease involvement, and pharmaceutical relevance have not been established[5].
