What's a GeneRIF?

Study shows that prominin-2 prevents the formation of caveolae in normal and ovarian hyperstimulated pregnancy.
Title: Prominin-2 Prevents the Formation of Caveolae in Normal and Ovarian Hyperstimulated Pregnancy.
These data show that all the characteristics of prominin-1 are shared by prominin-2, which is in agreement with a possible redundancy in their role as potential organizers of plasma membrane protrusions.
Title: Prominin-2 is a cholesterol-binding protein associated with apical and basolateral plasmalemmal protrusions in polarized epithelial cells and released into urine.
results argue that PROML2 is a novel proapoptotic membrane protein; its down-regulation may associate with aggressive phenotype of prostate cancer cells
Title: Identification and characterization of a novel testosterone-regulated prominin-like gene in the rat ventral prostate.

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.
