What's a GeneRIF?

This study analyzed the direct interaction between CAIV and the two Monocarboxylate transporters (MCTs) chaperones basigin (CD147) and embigin (GP70).
Title: Membrane-anchored carbonic anhydrase IV interacts with monocarboxylate transporters via their chaperones CD147 and GP70.
Expression of active MCT2 at the plasma membrane of oocytes was significantly enhanced by co-expression of exogenous embigin.
Title: The inhibition of monocarboxylate transporter 2 (MCT2) by AR-C155858 is modulated by the associated ancillary protein.
embigin enhances neural cell adhesion molecule-dependent neuromuscular adhesion and thereby modulates neuromuscular junction formation and plasticity.
Title: A novel role for embigin to promote sprouting of motor nerve terminals at the neuromuscular junction.
MCT2 associates with gp70 and is insensitive to pCMBS; embigin (gp70) is an ancillary protein required to maintain the catalytic activity of MCT2
Title: Basigin (CD147) is the target for organomercurial inhibition of monocarboxylate transporter isoforms 1 and 4: the ancillary protein for the insensitive MCT2 is EMBIGIN (gp70).

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.
