    Summary
    The protein encoded by this gene binds RNA and is associated with polysomes. The encoded protein may be involved in mRNA trafficking from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. A trinucleotide repeat (CGG) in the 5' UTR is normally found at 6-53 copies, but an expansion to 55-230 repeats is the cause of fragile X syndrome. Expansion of the trinucleotide repeat may also cause one form of premature ovarian failure (POF1). Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different protein isoforms and which are located in different cellular locations have been described for this gene.

    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.

    1. NR_033699.2 RNA Sequence

      Status: REVIEWED

      Description
      Transcript Variant: This variant (ISO4) lacks an alternate segment, compared to variant ISO1. This variant is represented as non-coding because the use of the 5'-most translational start codon, as used in variant ISO1, renders this transcript a candidate for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD).

    2. NR_033700.2 RNA Sequence

      Status: REVIEWED

      Description
      Transcript Variant: This variant (ISO10) lacks two alternate segments, compared to variant ISO1. This variant is represented as non-coding because the use of the 5'-most translational start codon, as used in variant ISO1, renders this transcript a candidate for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD).
