DLEU2 - deleted in lymphocytic leukemia 2 Gene
Also Known as ALT1; DLB2; LEU2; RFP2; BCMSUN; RFP2OS; MIR15AHG; TRIM13OS; LINC00022; NCRNA00022
Species: Homo sapiens
About DLEU2
This gene has 29 transcripts (splice variants). Ubiquitous expression in bone marrow (RPKM 1.5), testis (RPKM 1.3) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
This locus represents a MicroRNA host gene and also produces long alternatively spliced non-coding RNAs. This genome region was observed to be deleted or epigenetically suppressed in leukemia, and was implicated as a negative regulator of cell proliferation. However, an alternative transcript produced at this locus was also found to promote progression through the cell cycle via angiotensin I converting enzyme 2 and cyclin D1.
