Miat

This gene encodes a spliced long non-coding RNA that may constitute a component of the nuclear matrix. This transcript has been associated with retinal cell fate determination. Altered expression of a similar gene in human has been associated with a susceptibility to myocardial infarction, and is involved in pathways that may contribute to the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2014]

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Miat often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.

The most significant associations for this gene, including commonly observed domains, pathway involvement, and functional highlights based on current data.
