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.

    Description
    Transcript Variant: This variant (2) uses an alternate in-frame splice site in the 5' coding region and lacks an alternate in-frame exon in the 3' coding region, compared to variant 1. The resulting isoform (2) has the same N- and C-termini but lacks a 3 amino acid segment near the N-terminus and a 39 amino acid segment near the C-terminus, compared to isoform 1.
