Summary
This gene encodes a member of the pancreatic ribonuclease A superfamily. The encoded enzyme is sereted and has unique uridine specificity. This gene resides in a cluster of highly related genes. It shares dual promoters and 5' exons with the angiogenin, ribonuclease, RNase A family, 5 gene. Each gene splices to a unique downstream exon that contains its complete coding region. Two alternatively spliced variants, with different 5' exons but the same coding exon, have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2009]

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.
