What's a GeneRIF?

HAND2 protein was endothelial specific and showed higher expression in the regions exposed to low WSS with disturbed flow.
Title: Characterization of shear-sensitive genes in the normal rat aorta identifies Hand2 as a major flow-responsive transcription factor.
These data suggest that cytokines can inhibit norepinephrine transporter expression through downregulation of Hand2 or Gata3 in cultured sympathetic neurons, but axotomy in adult animals selectively suppresses Hand2 expression.
Title: Cytokines inhibit norepinephrine transporter expression by decreasing Hand2.
interacts with GATA4 to synergistically activate cardiac gene expression through a p300-dependent mechanism
Title: The transcription factors GATA4 and dHAND physically interact to synergistically activate cardiac gene expression through a p300-dependent mechanism.
Hand2 is necessary for terminal differentiatiion of enteric neurons from crest-derived precursors.
Title: Hand2 is necessary for terminal differentiation of enteric neurons from crest-derived precursors but not for their migration into the gut or for formation of glia.
expressed in the adult-rodent heart and is modulated during cardiac hypertrophy
Title: HAND1 and HAND2 are expressed in the adult-rodent heart and are modulated during cardiac hypertrophy.

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.
