MALAT1 encodes the human gene, Metastasis associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (non-protein coding). It may also be known as: Metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1; metastasis associated in lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1; non-protein coding RNA 47; hepcarcin; nuclear enriched abundant transcript 2; nuclear paraspeckle assembly transcript 2 (non-protein coding); long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 47; HCN; LINC00047; MALAT-1; NCRNA00047; NEAT2; PRO2853; mascRNA. The encoded protein has an amino acid length of 57 and a mass of 6.3 kDa. Homologs of this gene exist in other organisms, including: Rat.
