What's a GeneRIF?

Human intelectin-2 (ITLN2) is selectively expressed by secretory Paneth cells.
Title: Human intelectin-2 (ITLN2) is selectively expressed by secretory Paneth cells.
Studies indicate that ITLN1 and ITLN2 intelectins are positioned on a single chromosome 1, suggesting mammalian intelectins have been independently expanded by partial gene duplication.

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.
