Annotated Information
Name
DANCR,differentiation antagonizing non-protein coding RNA(HGNC nomenclature) "anti-differentiation ncRNA", "anti-differentiation noncoding RNA", lncRNA-ANCR[1] KIAA0114,"KIAA0114"[2] "small nucleolar RNA host gene 13 (non-protein coding)", SNHG13 "adipogenesis up-regulated transcript 2", AGU2[3]
Characteristics
The ANCR gene is located on human chromosome 4, with the closest adjacent annotated genes located 54.8 kb upstream of (USP46) and 28.7 kb downstream from (ERVMER34-1) the ANCR locus. The ANCR locus consists of three exons and harbors a microRNA (MIR4449) and a snoRNA (SNORA26) in introns 1 and 2, respectively. These small RNAs are not coordinately expressed with ANCR and are not part of the mature ANCR transcript). [1]
It contains another conserved GC-rich region in the first intron, which may be processed as a not-yet-annotated small functional RNA. This notion does, however, require more intensive analysis of the function of DANCR. From an evolutionary perspective, it is of interest that transcription units of DANCR as well as AGD2 are shaped by retrotransposons. AGU2 contains a long terminal repeat (LTR)-like element, which provides its polyA signal.[3]
Function
ANCR suppresses a genetic program associated with epidermal differentiation. Depleting ANCR in progenitor-containing populations, without any other stimuli, led to rapid differentiation gene induction. In epidermis, ANCR loss abolished the normal exclusion of differentiation from the progenitor-containing compartment. The ANCR lncRNA is thus required to enforce the undifferentiated cell state within epidermis[1]
Regulation
AGU2 induction seen in adipogenesis might be due to cooperative stimulation by Dex and IBMX.[3]
