Abstract:Human THAP9 is a domesticated transposon homologous to the Drosophila P-element transposase (DmTNP). However, the exact functional role of THAP9 is unknown. THAP9-AS1 (THAP9-anti sense1) is a lncRNA involved in various cancers. Together they are arranged head-to-head on opposite DNA strands forming a sense and anti-sense gene pair. No studies have analyzed THAP9 and THAP9-AS1 from a pan-cancer perspective. First, we analyzed the bidirectional promoter region between THAP9 and THAP9-AS1 for core promoter eleme… Show more
