Gene: LINC01118

Alternate names for this Gene: -

Gene Summary:

Gene is located in Chromosome: 2

Location in Chromosome : 2p21

Description of this Gene: long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 1118

Type of Gene: ncRNA

Gene: SOCS5

Alternate names for this Gene: CIS6|CISH6|Cish5|SOCS-5

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene contains a SH2 domain and a SOCS BOX domain. The protein thus belongs to the suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS) family, also known as STAT-induced STAT inhibitor (SSI) protein family. SOCS family members are known to be cytokine-inducible negative regulators of cytokine signaling. The specific function of this protein has not yet been determined. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding an identical protein have been reported.
