Long Non-coding RNA: Characterizing the Locus Features by the Approaches.

is an lncRNA that has been known to have an oncogenic role in different cancers. There is limited knowledge of genetic and epigenetic elements and their interactions for the gene encoding . Therefore, understanding the molecular mechanism and its regulation remains to be challenging. We used different analyses to find genetic and epigenetic elements of gene to gain insight into its regulation. We reported different regulatory elements including canonical promoters, transcription start sites, CpGIs as well as epigenetic marks that are potentially involved in the regulation of gene expression. We identified repeat sequences and single nucleotide polymorphisms that are located within or next to the CpGIs of . Our analyses may help to find potential interactions between genetic and epigenetic elements of gene in the human tissues and show opportunities and limitations for researches on gene in future studies.
