Long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 2130 (LINC02130)

Long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 2130 (LINC02130) is an annotated human gene that encodes a long intergenic non-coding RNA (lincRNA), which is a subclass of long non-coding RNAs transcribed from genomic regions that do not overlap protein-coding genes[1][3][7]. LincRNAs are typically over 200 nucleotides in length and may regulate gene expression at transcriptional, post-transcriptional, or epigenetic levels. Most lincRNAs, including LINC02130, remain poorly characterized, with functional roles inferred largely from the broader lincRNA family, which is known for fine-tuning gene expression and potentially contributing to genome architecture and regulatory networks[3][7]. LINC02130 is not known to encode a protein, nor is it identified as a direct therapeutic target, nor does it have established roles in specific diseases at present[1][3][7].
