What's a GeneRIF?

Deletion of Ezhip (EZH inhibitory protein) in mice leads to a global increase in H3K27me2/3 deposition both during spermatogenesis and at late stages of oocyte maturation. This does not affect the initial number of follicles but is associated with a reduction of follicles in aging. Study uncovers Ezhip as a regulator of chromatin landscape in gametes.
Title: EZHIP constrains Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 activity in germ cells.
Study revealed that CXORF67 contains a highly conserved "K27M-like" sequence that is necessary and sufficient to inhibit PRC2 activity and reduce cellular H3K27me3 levels. Biochemical and cell-based studies demonstrate that CXORF67 functions as a K27M-like peptidyl inhibitor of PRC2. Therefore, study propose the name EZHIP (Enhancer of Zeste Homologs Inhibitory Protein) as a more descriptive for the function of CXORF67.
Title: PFA ependymoma-associated protein EZHIP inhibits PRC2 activity through a H3 K27M-like mechanism.

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.
