Name
AIRN: Antisense of IGF2R non-protein coding RNA
AIR
IGF2RAS
Characteristics
108 kb (unspliced). Transcribed from an antisense promoter located in intron 2 of the Igf2r (insulin-like growth-factor type-2 receptor) gene ((Lyle 2000), (Wutz 1997)).
Also a number of spliced isoforms from 500bp to ~1.4kb ((Seidl 2006)).
Imprinted, expressed only from paternal allele ((Wutz 1997), [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10802648 (Lyle 2000)).
Function
Regulates genomic imprinting of a cluster of autosomal genes (Igf2r, Slc22a2 and Slc22a3) in cis, on mouse chromosome 17 ((Sleutels 2002)).
Truncation of Air disrupts imprinting not only of Igf2r but also the nearby non-overlapping genes Slc22a2 and Slc22a3, leading to mice with a lower birth weight ((Sleutels 2002)).
Air RNA forms a "cloud" over the imprinted DNA locus, binding to chromatin. Recruits G9a histone methyltransferase to epigenetically silence Slc22a3 ((Nagano 2008)). Igf2r is not silenced by this mechanism.
Nb: Slc22a3 and Slc22a2 are only imprinted at a specific time point in placental development. Outside of this time point the Air "cloud"/ Air chromatin binding and repressive histone modification are not found on these gene loci ((Nagano 2008)).
Regulation
Please input regulation information here.
Expression
Expressed during embryonic development, in the placenta ((Wutz 1997), (Lyle 2000)), adult brain, lung and heart ((Seidl 2006)).
Expressed in glial cells of the developing brain but not in neurons, explains lack of Igf2r imprinting in these neurons. ((Yamasaki 2005))
Unspliced Air is unstable, localised to the nucleus. Spliced isoforms, found in nucleus and cytoplasm, are more stable ((Seidl 2006)).
Conservation
All characterisation been carried out in mouse. Recently Air has been identified in human ((Yotova 2008)) but full length transcripts have yet to be characterised.
Allelic Information and Variation
Please input allelic information and variation information here.
Misc
Nb: Genebank and NCBI Gene sequences for Air are all for the spliced mouse isoforms. See http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/104103. UCSC browser link below is for transcript variant 3 which covers a similar length to the unspliced transcript. (Brosens 2012)
