    Summary
    This gene encodes a member of the insulin family of protein growth factors, which are involved in fetal development and growth. It is an imprinted gene that is expressed from the paternal allele while the maternal allele is silenced. The encoded protein is proteolytically processed to generate the mature peptide hormone, which binds to receptors of the insulin receptor family. This peptide plays a role in oocyte development and folliculogenesis in female cattle. Polymorphisms in this gene may be associated with cattle body mass. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2018]

    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.
