Gene: PCAT1

Alternate names for this Gene: PCA1|PCAT-1|PiHL

Gene Summary: This gene produces a long non-coding RNA that promotes cell proliferation and is upregulated in prostate, colorectal, and other cancers. This RNA negatively regulates the BRCA2 tumor suppressor protein and positively regulates Myc oncoprotein. It contains binding sites for microRNAs, and may act as a sponge for microRNAs that regulate cell growth pathways.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 8

Location in Chromosome : 8q24.21
