It is noteworthy that the most over-expressed segment contains the ncRNA transcript, MLK7-AS1 (2q31-q32) and that between the twenty most variable genes in single gene level analysis, several non-coding transcripts and not-yet-characterized EST clusters have been found, including LINC00520, with an almost ten-fold higher expression in PD patient cells. The gene discussed is LINC00520; the disease is Parkinson disease.
