What's a GeneRIF?

The DYNLL2 binding region, located in an intrinsically disordered domain of the myo5a tail, has a nascent helical character.
Title: DYNLL2 dynein light chain binds to an extended linear motif of myosin 5a tail that has structural plasticity.
the thermodynamic and kinetic fine-tuning of binding of various ligands to DYNLL could have physiological relevance in its interaction network.

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.
