    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_001318834.2NP_001305763.1  UDP-N-acetylglucosamine transporter TMEM241 isoform 2

      Status: VALIDATED

      Description
      Transcript Variant: This variant (2) includes an alternate exon which results in the use of an alternate start codon, compared to variant 1. The encoded isoform (2) has a shorter and distinct N-terminus, compared to isoform 1.

      Status: VALIDATED

      Description
      Transcript Variant: This variant (3) lacks an internal exon compared to variant 1. This variant is represented as non-coding because the use of the 5'-most expected translational start codon renders the transcript a candidate for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD).
