01

Overview

Long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 2172 (LINC02172) is a non-coding RNA gene located on human chromosome 4[5]. It is classified as a lincRNA, belonging to a group of RNA transcripts longer than 200 nucleotides that are transcribed from intergenic regions and do not overlap annotated coding genes[5][7]. LincRNAs are thought to fine-tune gene expression, modulate chromatin architecture, regulate transcription, or carry out other regulatory functions, often with tissue specificity[7]. Most lincRNAs, including LINC02172, have not been functionally characterized in detail. There is no evidence to suggest that LINC02172 encodes a protein or acts as a receptor, enzyme, or other classical therapeutic target[1][5][7].
