Annotated Information
Approved Symbol
KRT7-AS (KRT7 antisense RNA 1)
Chromosome
12q13.13
RefSeq
NG_012296
Characteristics
KRT7-AS is localized to the nucleus and it shares a 213-nucleotide-long region with the seventh exon of KRT7.[1]
Expression
KRT7-AS levels are much lower than KRT7 mRNA levels in the same samples. In MKN28 and KATOIII cells, KRT7-AS is 61 and 41 fold lower than KRT7 mRNA (P<0.01).
Function
KRT7-AS and KRT7 mRNA form a duplex RNA-RNA structure at their overlapping region, which can increase KRT7 mRNA Stability and protect KRT7 mRNA from degradation.[1] The overexpressed KRT7-AS in gastric cancer cells leads to increased proliferation and migration.[1]
Disease
gastric cancer [1]
