What's a GeneRIF?

P2X4 and P2X6 proteins were expressed in a different way during rat small intestine development, showing a higher colocalization coefficient at age P30 in both intestine regions. Those results suggest that purinergic receptors may play a role in intestinal maturation, which is associated with age and intestinal region.

The study explores the association of the phenotype of ATP-activated current with the genotype of P2X1-6 subunits in neurons innervating tooth-pulp.

P2X(4) and P2X(6) purinoreceptors are present in the gut from birth and that they are differentially distributed among regions
Title: Distribution of the purinegic receptors P2X(4) and P2X(6) during rat gut development.
The P2X6 receptor subunit is widely expressed in neuropils in the whole gray matter except for the dorsal superficial layer of the dorsal horn.

Results suggest a direct relationship between purinergic P2X2/6 receptor expression and induction of neuronal differentiation in mitogen-free cultured rat neurospheres.
Title: Directed differentiation of neural progenitors into neurons is accompanied by altered expression of P2X purinergic receptors.
The P2X(6) receptors are mainly expressed on intrinsic sensory neurons and that ATP, via P2X(6) receptors probably in heteromeric combination with P2X(2) receptors, may be involved in regulating the physiological functions of these neurons.
Title: Expression of P2X6 receptors in the enteric nervous system of the rat gastrointestinal tract.
P2X(2) receptors are trimers, whereas the P2X(6) receptor subunits do not form stable oligomers
Title: Atomic force microscopy imaging demonstrates that P2X2 receptors are trimers but that P2X6 receptor subunits do not oligomerize.

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.
