What's a GeneRIF?

These results highlight the importance of the tectorin-based matrix and epithelial signals for precise collagen organisation in the tectorial membrane.
Title: A tectorin-based matrix and planar cell polarity genes are required for normal collagen-fibril orientation in the developing tectorial membrane.
Alpha-tectorin and beta-tectorin crosslink type II collagen fibrils and connect the tectorial membrane to the spiral limbus.
Title: Tectorins crosslink type II collagen fibrils and connect the tectorial membrane to the spiral limbus.
CEACAM16 can probably form higher order structures with other tectorial membrane proteins such as alpha-tectorin and beta-tectorin and influences the physical properties of the tectorial membrane
Title: Loss of mammal-specific tectorial membrane component carcinoembryonic antigen cell adhesion molecule 16 (CEACAM16) leads to hearing impairment at low and high frequencies.

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.
