AOAH intronic transcript 1 (AOAH-IT1)

AOAH intronic transcript 1 (AOAH-IT1) is a non-protein-coding gene classified as a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), transcribed entirely within an intron of the AOAH gene, which encodes acyloxyacyl hydrolase[1][3]. According to current classifications, AOAH-IT1 does not code for a protein and is not characterized as an enzyme, receptor, transporter, or similar actionable therapeutic target[1][3]. Like many lncRNAs, its function remains largely uncharacterized, but lncRNAs often act as regulators of gene expression, both in "cis" (on neighboring genes) and "trans" (on distant loci)[3]. No direct evidence links AOAH-IT1 to particular biological functions, disease roles, or drug interactions. If more detailed characterization, biological function, or disease association emerges in future literature, further updates may be possible; currently, information on AOAH-IT1 is limited to its status as an intronic lncRNA gene[1][3].
