SUMMARY back to top
RefSeq annotates one representative transcript (NM included in AceView variant.b), but Mus musculus cDNA sequences in GenBank, dbEST, Trace and SRA, filtered against clone rearrangements, coaligned on the genome and clustered in a minimal non-redundant way by the manually supervised AceView program, support at least 5 spliced variants.

AceView synopsis, each blue text links to tables and details
Expression: According to AceView, this gene is moderately expressed, only 28.1% of the average gene in this release. The sequence of this gene is defined by 31 GenBank accessions from 28 cDNA clones, some from brain (seen 5 times), rathke's pouches (2), whole brain (2), brain, PCR rescued clones (once), branchial arches (once), whole body (once), whole embryo including extraembryonictissues at 13.5-days postcoitum (once). We annotate structural defects or features in one cDNA clone.
Alternative mRNA variants and regulation: The gene contains 19 distinct gt-ag introns. Transcription produces 5 alternatively spliced mRNAs. There are 3 probable alternative promotors and 2 non overlapping alternative last exons (see the diagram). The mRNAs appear to differ by truncation of the 3' end, presence or absence of a cassette exon, overlapping exons with different boundaries. 82 bp of this gene are antisense to spliced gene wychy, raising the possibility of regulated alternate expression.
Function: There are 5 articles specifically referring to this gene in PubMed. Functionally, the gene has been proposed to participate in processes (response to hypoxia, signal transduction, transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter, regulation of transcription, regulation of transcription, DNA-dependent). Proteins are expected to have molecular functions (DNA binding, signal transducer activity, transcription factor activity, transcription regulator activity) and to localize in nucleus.
Please see the Jackson Laboratory Mouse Genome Database/Informatics site MGI_1859778 for in depth functional annotation of this gene.
Protein coding potential: The 5 spliced mRNAs putatively encode good proteins, altogether 5 different isoforms (1 complete, 2 COOH complete, 2 partial), some containing domains PAS fold, PAS fold-3 [Pfam].

Exon size is proportional to length, intron height reflects the number of cDNAs supporting each intron, the small numbers show the support of the introns in deep sequencing (with details in mouse-over) . Introns of the same color are identical, of different colors are different. 'Good proteins' are pink, partial or not-good proteins are yellow, uORFs are green. 5' cap or3' poly A flags show completeness of the transcript.
