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.

  1. NM_001145023.2 → NP_001138495.1  secernin-2 isoform 2

    Status: VALIDATED

    Description
    Transcript Variant: This variant (2) contains an alternate in-frame segment in the 3' coding region that results in a frameshift compared to variant 1. The resulting protein (isoform 2) is shorter and has a distinct C-terminus compared to isoform 1.
