What's a GeneRIF?

Accordingly, medullary WNK4 protein levels were significantly increased in the kidneys of KLHL2(-/-) mice. KLHL2 is indeed a physiological regulator of WNK4 in vivo; however, its function might be different from that of KLHL3 because KLHL2 mainly localized in medulla.
Title: Impaired degradation of medullary WNK4 in the kidneys of KLHL2 knockout mice.
These results suggest that KLHL2 likely plays a role in the pathogenesis of FHHt, and aggravates the phenotype caused by mutations in CUL3 and WNK4.
Title: Degradation by Cullin 3 and effect on WNK kinases suggest a role of KLHL2 in the pathogenesis of Familial Hyperkalemic Hypertension.
This study showed that KLHL2 is involved in the physiologic regulation of the WNK signal cascade.
Title: Kelch-Like Protein 2 Mediates Angiotensin II-With No Lysine 3 Signaling in the Regulation of Vascular Tonus.

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.
