Overview

WDFY3 antisense RNA 2 (WDFY3-AS2) is a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) located antisense to the WDFY3 gene. It is not translated into a protein but appears to play roles in the regulation of WDFY3 gene expression. Reduced expression of WDFY3-AS2 has been associated with poor outcomes in some cancers such as breast cancer, where it is thought to act as a tumor suppressor. Its mechanism of action most likely involves post-transcriptional regulatory effects on WDFY3, though detailed functions are still being researched. There are no known direct drug interactions, mechanism-based therapies, or approved biomarkers based on this RNA, but ongoing research suggests potential relevance for cancer prognosis.
