In molecular biology, JPX transcript, XIST activator (non-protein coding), also known as Jpx, is a long non-coding RNA. In humans, it is located on the X chromosome. It was identified during sequence analysis of the X inactivation centre, surrounding the Xist gene. [3] Jpx upregulates expression of Xist. [4]

KCNQ1DN

KCNQ1 downstream neighbour (KCNQ1DN) is a long non-coding RNA gene. In humans, it is located on chromosome 11p15.5 between the CDKN1C and KCNQ1 genes. It is an imprinted gene, expressed from the maternal allele. Reduced expression of KCNQ1DN is observed in Wilms' tumours.

In molecular biology, FTX transcript, XIST regulator , also known as FTX, is a long non-coding RNA. In humans, it is located on the X chromosome. It was identified during sequence analysis of the X inactivation centre, surrounding the XIST gene. FTX contains several microRNAs within its introns. It upregulates expression of XIST, and inhibits DNA methylation of the XIST promoter.
