Overview

Long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 2986 (LINC02986), also known as lncZBTB10, is a long intergenic non-coding RNA (lincRNA) that is overexpressed in prostate cancer and associated with poor clinical outcomes[1][4]. It facilitates androgen receptor (AR) activity in prostate cancer cells by promoting S-palmitoylation and the formation of nuclear biomolecular condensates, thereby contributing to tumor growth and resistance to the drug abiraterone[4]. LINC02986 exemplifies the class of lincRNAs, which typically function in gene regulation, chromatin architecture, and can act as tissue-specific regulators; however, LINC02986 is not a classical therapeutic target such as a receptor, enzyme, or transporter[3][4]. Evidence currently supports its role as a regulator and potential biomarker rather than as a direct target for drug interactions.
