Description:

21A is one of a number of RNAP III-transcribed ncRNAs that have sequence complementarity to protein-coding genes, possibly acting as a natural trans-chromosomal antisense RNA. Aligned to the human genome, it shows several homology hits, among which the most highly significant were associated to multiple intronic regions of centromeric protein F gene (CENP-F). In vitro over-expression of 21A transcripts inhibits CENP-F protein accumulation and decreased levels of CENP-F mRNA, indicating that 21A regulates CENP-F expression in trans. 21A RNAs has a role in the control of the proliferation of human tumor cell lines, possibly via regulation of CENP-F expression. This effect was not observed in a mouse cell line.
