GeneRIFs: Gene References Into Functions

What's a GeneRIF?

Using both living fish embryos and mammalian macrophages, we show that processing depends on the shrinkage and packaging of phagosomes into a unique cellular compartment, the gastrosome, with distinct molecular and ultra-structural characteristics. Loss of the transporter Slc37a2 blocks phagosomal shrinkage, resulting in the expansion of the gastrosome and the dramatic bloating of the cell.
Title: Clearance by Microglia Depends on Packaging of Phagosomes into a Unique Cellular Compartment.
Data show that SLC37A1 and SLC37A2 are endoplasmic reticulum associated, P(i)-linked antiporters, that can transport glucose-6-phosphate.
Title: SLC37A1 and SLC37A2 are phosphate-linked, glucose-6-phosphate antiporters.

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.
