    Summary
    This gene is a member of the N-myc downregulated gene family which belongs to the alpha/beta hydrolase superfamily. The protein encoded by this gene is a cytoplasmic protein that is required for cell cycle progression and survival in primary astrocytes and may be involved in the regulation of mitogenic signalling in vascular smooth muscles cells. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcripts encoding different isoforms.[provided by RefSeq, Jun 2011]

    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.

      Description
      Transcript Variant: This variant (1) differs in the 5' UTR which results in the use of an in-frame downstream translation initiation codon, compared to variant 2. The encoded protein (isoform 1; also known as NDRG4-H) has a shorter N-terminus, compared to isoform 2. Variants 1 and 3 encode the same isoform.

      See identical proteins and their annotated locations for NP_075061.1

      Status: REVIEWED

      Description
      Transcript Variant: This variant (3) differs in the 5' UTR which results in the use of an in-frame downstream translation initiation codon, compared to variant 2. The encoded protein (isoform 1; also known as NDRG4-H) has a shorter N-terminus, compared to isoform 2. Variants 1 and 3 encode the same isoform.

    1. NR_040072.2 RNA Sequence

      Status: REVIEWED

      Description
      Transcript Variant: This variant (8) includes an alternate exon segment in the 5' coding region, compared to variant 2, which results in a frameshift and early stop codon. The transcript is sufficiently abundant to represent as a RefSeq record; however, the predicted protein is not represented because the product is significantly truncated and the transcript is a candidate for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD).
