Name

INF2 Gene

inverted formin, FH2 and WH2 domain containing

This gene represents a member of the formin family of proteins. It is considered a diaphanous formin due to the presence of a diaphanous inhibitory domain located at the N-terminus of the encoded protein. Studies of a similar mouse protein indicate that the protein encoded by this locus may function in polymerization and depolymerization of actin filaments. Mutations at this locus have been associated with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis 5.[provided by RefSeq, Aug 2010]

UCA1 Gene

urothelial cancer associated 1 (non-protein coding)

This gene produces a long non-coding RNA that was found to be upregulated in bladder cancer and plays a regulatory role in cell proliferation. This transcript regulates several genes, including CREB (cAMP responsive element binding protein). Expression of this transcript is regulated by CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein-alpha.
