    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.

      Description
      Transcript Variant: This variant (3) contains an alternate exon compared to variant 1. The resulting isoform (b) uses a translation initiation site at a downstream AUG that results in an isoform (b) with a shorter N-terminus compared to isoform 1. Variants 3 and 4 both encode the same isoform (b).
