What's a GeneRIF?

study reports that mutation of either TMEM138 or TMEM216 causes a phenotypically indistinguishable ciliopathy, Joubert syndrome; expression of the genes is mediated by a conserved regulatory element in the noncoding intergenic region
Title: Evolutionarily assembled cis-regulatory module at a human ciliopathy locus.

Title: Mutation analysis of 18 nephronophthisis associated ciliopathy disease genes using a DNA pooling and next generation sequencing strategy.
Data show that a single G218T mutation (R73L in the protein) was identified in all cases of Ashkenazi Jewish descent.
Title: Mutations in TMEM216 perturb ciliogenesis and cause Joubert, Meckel and related syndromes.
a TMEM216 mutation may have a role in Joubert syndrome 2 (JBTS2) in Ashkenazi Jews
Title: Joubert syndrome 2 (JBTS2) in Ashkenazi Jews is associated with a TMEM216 mutation.

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.
