Summary
A cluster of CC chemokine genes exists on chromosome 17q11.2. The CC chemokines are secreted proteins characterized by two adjacent cysteines. The genes chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 14 and chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 15 are adjacent loci and express read-through transcripts spanning both loci. The read-through transcripts were originally interpreted as bicistronic transcripts, but they are represented as non-coding because they are candidates for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD).

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.

RNA

  1. NR_027921.3 RNA Sequence

    Status: VALIDATED

    Description
    Transcript Variant: This variant (1) represents the longer transcript. This variant is represented as non-coding because the use of the 5'-most expected translational start codon, as used in NM_032965, renders the transcript a candidate for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD).
    Source sequence(s)
    AC244100, Z70293

  2. NR_027922.3 RNA Sequence

    Status: VALIDATED

    Description
    Transcript Variant: This variant (2) lacks an alternate exon, compared to variant 1. This variant is represented as non-coding because the use of the 5'-most expected translational start codon, as used in NM_032965, renders the transcript a candidate for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD).
    Source sequence(s)
    AC244100, Z70292

The following Reference Sequences have been suppressed. Explain

  1. NG_003025.1: Suppressed sequence

    Description
    NG_003025.1: This RefSeq was permanently suppressed because the two loci are no longer considered to be expressed from bicistronic transcripts, and NG_003025.1 is out of scope.
