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.

    Status: VALIDATED

    Description
    Transcript Variant: This variant (4) uses an alternate splice site and lacks an alternate exon in the 5' region, and it thus differs in its 5' UTR and initiates translation from a downstream in-frame start codon, compared to variant 1. The encoded isoform (b) is shorter at the N-terminus, compared to isoform a. Both variants 4 and 5 encode isoform b.

    Description
    Transcript Variant: This variant (5) uses an alternate splice site and lacks two alternate exons in the 5' region, and it thus differs in its 5' UTR and initiates translation from a downstream in-frame start codon, compared to variant 1. The encoded isoform (b) is shorter at the N-terminus, compared to isoform a. Both variants 4 and 5 encode isoform b.
