GeneRIFs: Gene References Into Functions

What's a GeneRIF?

The topographical distribution of beacon immunoreactivity in rat brain indicates its possible function as a neutrotransmitter, a neuromodulator, or a neuroendocrine regulator, depending upon its localization.
Title: Distribution of beacon immunoreactivity in the rat brain.
The hypothesis is advanced that beacon is to be considered an autocrine-paracrine negative regulator of mineralo- and glucocorticoid synthesis in the rat adrenal gland.
Title: Differential expression and function of beacon in the rat adrenal cortex and medulla.
a hypothalamic peptide involved in the regulation of food intake which might act as an endogenous inhibitor of adrenocortical growth in the rat.
Title: Down-regulation of the beacon gene expression in the regenerating rat adrenal cortex.

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.
