  4. Study identified a novel cerebropulmonary and multi-organ disease characterised by a unique combination of tissue fibrosis, neurodegeneration and cerebral angiomatosis, and identified identical compound heterozygous NHLRC2 variants in three affected children from two unrelated families. Also created a KO mouse model and zebrafish morphants to investigate the consequences of absent or decreased Nhlrc2 expression.

  6. Bioinformatics analysis discovers homologs across a range of eukaryotic and prokaryotic species and conserved residues map mostly to the adjacent surfaces of the Trx-like and beta-propeller domains that form the cleft, suggesting both that this forms the potential functional site of NHLRC2 and that the function is conserved across species.

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.
