EXPRESSION
Rna function
  • HOTAIR directly decreased WIF1 expression by promoting its histone H3K27 methylation in the promoter region and then activated the WNT/CTNNB1 signaling pathway
  • is an inducer of ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis
  • associates with E3 ubiquitin ligases bearing RNA-binding domains, DZIP3 and MEX3B, as well as with their respective ubiquitination substrates, ATXN1 and SNUPN
  • ERBB2, MYC, WIF1, RBM38, PTEN, are involved in the HOTAIR regulation network
  • critical role of HOTAIR in serous ovarian cancer (SOC)cell proliferation
  • HOTAIR may play important roles in retinoblastoma progression via Notch pathway
  • promotes Parkinson disease by upregulating LRRK2 expression
  • plays a key role in the progression of various carcinomas
  • HOTAIR promoted glycolysis by upregulating SLC2A1 and activating mammalian target of rapamycin (MTOR) signaling
  • JMJD6 regulates HOTAIR independent of ER status
  • PUM1 regulates HOTAIR expression via a posttranscriptional mechanism
