What's a GeneRIF?

MAEA is an E3 ubiquitin ligase promoting autophagy and maintenance of haematopoietic stem cells.
Title: MAEA is an E3 ubiquitin ligase promoting autophagy and maintenance of haematopoietic stem cells.
The data showed that erythroblast macrophage protein (EMP) is ubiquitously expressed in macrophages at all of the tissues of the lupus and control mice. However, the expression of EMP in bone marrow and liver tissues of lupus mice was higher than in the control mice, which indicates that EMP may be important in the development of systemic lupus erythematosus.
Title: Differential tissue expression of erythroblast macrophage protein in a MRL/lpr mouse model of lupus.
results implicate Emp in abnormal cell motility in macrophage cells
Title: Novel interactions between erythroblast macrophage protein and cell migration.
Emp plays a cell intrinsic role in the erythroid lineage
Title: Requirement for erythroblast-macrophage protein (Emp) in definitive erythropoiesis.
Temporal and spatial expression of Emp correlates with its role in erythroblastic island formation, suggesting that Emp may be involved in multiple cellular functions.
Title: Changing pattern of the subcellular distribution of erythroblast macrophage protein (Emp) during macrophage differentiation.
Emp null model provides an experimental system to study enucleation process and to evaluate the function of macrophages in definitive erythropoiesis.
Title: Absence of erythroblast macrophage protein (Emp) leads to failure of erythroblast nuclear extrusion.

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.
