01
Overview
HERPUD2 antisense RNA 1 (HERPUD2-AS1) is a primate-specific long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) classified as an antisense transcript located at chromosome 7p14.2, overlapping with HERPUD2[3][1]. As an lncRNA, it is not translated into protein but exerts regulatory functions at the RNA level, potentially through regulation of gene expression, transcriptional modulation, or epigenetic mechanisms[1][7][9]. HERPUD2-AS1 is considered a highly specific neuronal marker and may be involved in the regulation of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress pathways[1]. There is growing interest in lncRNAs like HERPUD2-AS1 due to their putative contributions to disease processes such as cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, and autoimmunity, but direct functional or therapeutic targeting information for HERPUD2-AS1 is currently lacking; its precise biological functions and disease associations remain to be fully characterized[2][3][4].
