HIVEP2 divergent transcript (HIVEP2-DT)

HIVEP2 divergent transcript (HIVEP2-DT), also known as PILA or PRMT1-interacting lncRNA, is a long non-coding RNA gene located on human chromosome 6. It is recognized by gene databases (e.g., Ensembl: ENSG00000232618, HGNC:55724) and shares genomic proximity with the HIVEP2 protein-coding locus but does not encode a protein. Unlike HIVEP2, which functions as a zinc finger transcription factor and is implicated in intellectual disability, HIVEP2-DT has not been documented as a direct molecular or therapeutic target, nor does it have established roles in diseases or as a biomarker. Its functional annotation is minimal, and its only suggested role, based on its alias, is potential interaction with PRMT1, but details are lacking in public resources as of mid-2025. Key distinctions: - HIVEP2-DT is an lncRNA, not a protein, receptor, enzyme, transporter, or canonical drug target. - Scarce scientific literature describes its function or any clinical relevance; it is distinct from the protein-coding HIVEP2 gene, which has established disease links. If you seek information on the protein-coding HIVEP2 (HIVEP zinc finger 2; synonym: Schnurri-2), see those entries for disease associations and biological functions.
