HULC, Official Symbol HULCprovided by HGNC Official Full Name hepatocellular carcinoma up-regulated long non-coding RNAprovided by HGNC Primary source HGNC:HGNC:34232 See related MIM:612210; AllianceGenome:HGNC:34232 Gene type ncRNA RefSeq status VALIDATED Organism Homo sapiens Lineage Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo Also known as HCCAT1; LINC00078; NCRNA00078 Summary This gene produces a long RNA that was discovered as upregulated in hepatocellular carcinoma and is associated with cancer progression. Expression of this transcript is regulated by microRNAs and at the transcriptional level by Sp1 family factors. The transcript may regulate gene expression by functioning as a competing RNA for microRNAs. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2017] Expression Restricted expression toward liver (RPKM 152.9) See more
