This gene produces a long non-coding RNA that promotes tumor formation and is upregulated in colon cancer and other cancer cell types.[4] This transcript may regulate long range chromosomal interactions, including at the Myc oncoprotein locus[5]. This RNA may also function as a molecular sponge for microRNAs[6].
