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.

  2. NM_001291332.2 → NP_001278261.1  maestro heat-like repeat-containing protein family member 7 isoform 2

    Status: VALIDATED

    Description
    Transcript Variant: This variant (3) differs in the 5' UTR, contains multiple differences in the 5' coding region, and initiates translation at a downstream in-frame start codon, compared to variant 1. The encoded isoform (2) has a shorter N-terminus than isoform 1.

RNA

  1. NR_026782.3 RNA Sequence

    Status: VALIDATED

    Description
    Transcript Variant: This variant (2) uses alternate splice sites in the 5'-most exon and in a central exon, compared to variant 1. This variant is represented as non-coding because the use of the supported translational start codon, as used in variant 1, renders the transcript a candidate for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD).

  2. NR_111931.2 RNA Sequence

    Status: VALIDATED

    Description
    Transcript Variant: This variant (4) lacks an internal exon, compared to variant 1. This variant is represented as non-coding because the use of the supported translational start codon, as used in variant 1, renders the transcript a candidate for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD).
