Long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 1299 (LINC01299)

Long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 1299 (LINC01299) is a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) gene, annotated at least in the human genome (Ensembl ENSG00000254081, NCBI Gene 286186), and located on chromosome 8:65526738-65562781 (GRCh38)[1][3]. It is also referenced as CTD-3025N20.2 in the literature[1]. LINC01299 does not encode a protein, but acts as a regulatory RNA implicated in cellular processes such as cell proliferation and potentially in the regulation of gene expression[7]. There is little evidence in the literature of its direct involvement as a therapeutic target, and it is not currently classified as a receptor, enzyme, transporter, or conventional drug target. It has not been established as a clinically actionable biomarker, nor are there known drugs targeting it or associated safety considerations. The biological and clinical significance of LINC01299 remains under investigation[1][3][7][5]. **Notes:** - The source at MapMyGenome (learn.mapmygenome.in) places LINC01299 on chromosome 12, but authoritative databases (NCBI, Ensembl) and the GDC Data Portal agree on chromosome 8—chromosome 8:65526738-65562781 (GRCh38)[1][3]. The chromosome 12 location should be disregarded as an error. - No evidence surfaced that LINC01299 is considered a classic therapeutic target or is actionable in clinical contexts[1][3][7][5].
