What's a GeneRIF?

Data suggest that removal of Slc18b1 leads to reduction of polyamine contents in neurons, resulting in reduced GABA signaling due to long-term reduction in glutamatergic signaling.
Title: The polyamine transporter Slc18b1(VPAT) is important for both short and long time memory and for regulation of polyamine content in the brain.
VPAT is expressed and is responsible for vesicular storage of spermine and spermidine in novel secretory granules that differ from histamine- and serotonin-containing granules and is involved in vesicular release of these polyamines from mast cells
Title: Vesicular Polyamine Transporter Mediates Vesicular Storage and Release of Polyamine from Mast Cells.

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.
