Characteristics
MYOSLID is located in a lncRNA-rich genomic region of chromosome 2 where the closest protein coding genes are 70 kb (KLF7) and 200 kb (CREB1) away from its 5’end and 3’ end, respectively.[1] It is a VSMC-selective lncRNA, which is a direct transcriptional target of MYOCD/SRF and TGFβ/SMAD pathways.[1] MYOSLID transcripts are predominately localized in the cytosol.[1]
Regulation
MYOSLID is a new member of the SRF-dependent program of human VSMC differentiation and it can be directly targeted by MYOCD/SRF.Under pathological conditions, MYOSLID is reduced.[1]
Function
MYOSLID promotes F-actin assembly leading to MKL1 nuclear translocation and the subsequent transcriptional activation of downstream VSMC contractile genes.[1]
