Annotated Information

Name

DM1-AS:DM1 locus antisense RNA

Characteristics

DM1-AS spans >6 kb, contains alternative transcription start sites and uses alternative polyadenylation sites up- and downstream of the (CAG)n repeat. [1]

Cellular Localization

DM1-AS transcripts are present in the nucleus and in the cytoplasm.[1]

Expression

The DM1-AS transcript is a low-abundance RNA[1].

DM1-AS expression appears upregulated in patients, but transcript abundance remains very low in some tissues. In addition, DM1-AS expression was lowest in brain and highest in kidney, testis and muscle.[1]

Diseases

Myotonic dystrophy type 1[1]
