TFAP2A-AS2

ncRNA

TFAP2A antisense RNA 2, the group of Antisense RNAs

Gene summary

The product of this intronless gene is a capped lncRNA that is nuclear-enriched and associated with chromatin. The encoded transcript may be involved in the regulation of developmental gene expression in a context-dependent manner, functioning as a repressor in non-pluripotent cells and an activator in pluripotent cells. Transcription of this gene is activated in 8-cell human embryos during the major wave of zygotic genome activation, independently of and prior to the activation of TFAP2A, an overlapping gene found on the opposite strand. Expression of this gene is characterized by high cell-to-cell variability in the cells of totipotent human embryos and in stable cell lines. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2017]

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript . Only rare variants are included.

We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.

Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.
