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.

See identical proteins and their annotated locations for NP_001029187.1

Status: VALIDATED

Description

Transcript Variant: This variant (1a, previously called 2), lacks an alternate in-frame exon compared to variant 1b. The resulting isoform (1a, previously called b), has the same N- and C-termini but is shorter compared to isoform 1b.
