Annotated Information
Name
Approved symbol:ROCR
Approved name:regulator of chondrogenesis RNA
HGNC ID HGNC:52946
Previous name:long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 2095
RefSeq ID:NR_110876
LncBook ID:HSALNG0129765|HSALNG0118528
Prev_symbol:LINC02095
Characteristics
ROCR were enriched in the cytoplasm.[1]
Function
ROCR is required for successful differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) into chondrocytes where it appears to contribute to SOX9 expression.[1]
Regulation
ROCR depletion reduced DNA levels, it was required for MSC proliferation during the early stages of chondrocyte differentiation.[1]
Expression
ROCR is upregulated during chondrogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs).[1]
Diseases
Neck of femur fracture [1]
