DUBR Gene

Name DPPA2 upstream binding RNA
Description Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including generation of neurons; negative regulation of macromolecule biosynthetic process; and protein stabilization. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and nucleus. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]
Summary
{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nLncRNA DUBR has been identified as a tumor‐suppressive molecule in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). In LUAD, DUBR expression is significantly downregulated, and its lower levels are associated with a poorer prognosis. Mechanistically, c-Myc binds to the DUBR promoter and represses its transcription, leading to enhanced migration and invasion of LUAD cells. Conversely, overexpression of DUBR upregulates the downstream effector ZBTB11, which contributes to a reduction in oxidative phosphorylation and ultimately suppresses the invasive and migratory phenotypes of LUAD cells."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "1"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n"}, {"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nThese findings underscore the critical and context-specific roles of lncRNAs in cancer, highlighting how different lncRNA-mediated regulatory axes can impact tumor behavior.
