What's a GeneRIF?

KLF6 and HSF4 are stimuli-specific regulatory elements which may be important in the control of the rat mdr1b and mrp3 genes during health and disease.
Title: KLF6 and HSF4 transcriptionally regulate multidrug resistance transporters during inflammation.
HSF4 binds to alphaB-crystallin, Hsp70, and Hsp82 promoters and has a role in interacting with the canonical heat shock element of the alphaB-crystallin gene [HSF4]
Title: Developmentally dictated expression of heat shock factors: exclusive expression of HSF4 in the postnatal lens and its specific interaction with alphaB-crystallin heat shock promoter.

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.
