Long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 2523 (LINC02523)

LINC02523 (Long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 2523) is a long non-coding RNA gene in humans, classified as a lincRNA. Such transcripts are present in intergenic regions—DNA stretches between protein-coding genes—and do not encode proteins[5][3]. Generally, lincRNAs are implicated in gene regulation, epigenetic modification, and control of chromatin structure[3][7], although for LINC02523 itself, specific biological or disease associations are not established and its function remains poorly characterized in the literature. No drugs or biomarkers are associated with this transcript, and it is not recognized as a traditional therapeutic target[5].
