Summary
Predicted to enable structural molecule activity. Predicted to be located in intermediate filament. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
Annotation information
Note: Although this gene is named as a pseudogene (PubMed 16831889), it is not yet established that the predicted protein is not translated. The NCBI RefSeq Project therefore continues to treat this as a protein coding gene. [11 Apr 2007]
Expression
Biased expression in brain (RPKM 9.0), gall bladder (RPKM 4.4) and 12 other tissues See more

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
