ATP5PO and type 2 diabetes mellitus: LINC00649 shares a bidirectional promoter with, and (depending on the splice isoform and on the transcription start site used) is antisense to, ATP5O, which encodes an F-type ATPase mitochondrial matrix protein associated with type II diabetes (T2D) in the context of its skeletal muscle mRNA expression profile (Rönn et al., 2009).
