WDR11 antisense RNA 1 (non-protein coding) (WDR11-AS1)

WDR11 antisense RNA 1 (WDR11-AS1, also referred to as WDR11 divergent transcript or WDR11-DT) is a long non-coding RNA located opposite the protein-coding WDR11 gene on chromosome 10. Its molecular function is not well-characterized. Antisense RNAs typically act to regulate the transcription or stability of the corresponding sense gene (here, WDR11), which is implicated in developmental processes, puberty, ciliogenesis, and certain syndromic diseases. However, there is no published evidence that WDR11-DT itself acts as a therapeutic target, biomarker, or that it is involved in drug interactions or mechanisms of action. It is primarily classified as an lncRNA, with potential regulatory roles, and further research would be needed to clarify its biological significance beyond genome annotation. Notes on correctness: If the query was aiming for WDR11 protein or receptor, WDR11-DT does not encode a protein and is not a receptor, enzyme, transcription factor, or classical therapeutic target. WDR11-DT is a non-coding RNA, and current scientific literature does not support its role as a direct target in disease or therapy. The actual protein-coding gene WDR11 has associations with developmental disorders and signaling pathways—not WDR11-DT.
