What's a GeneRIF?

A hierarchic gene expression of copper homeostatic genes was demonstrated between atp7a, sp1 and sod1 in zebrafish.
Title: Zebrafish sod1 and sp1 expression are modulated by the copper ATPase gene atp7a in response to intracellular copper status.
zebrafish Sp1-like protein is structurally and functionally comparable to human Sp1

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.
