KIRREL1 antibody

Background of KIRREL1 antibody

NEPH1 is a member of the nephrin-like protein family, which includes NEPH2 (MIM 607761) and NEPH3 (MIM 607762). The cytoplasmic domains of these proteins interact with the C terminus of podocin (NPHS2; MIM 604766), and the genes are expressed in kidney podocytes, cells involved in ensuring size- and charge-selective ultrafiltration (Sellin et al., 2003 [PubMed 12424224]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]. Transcript Variant: This variant (2) lacks two in-frame exons in the 5' coding region compared to variant 1. The encoded isoform (2) is shorter than isoform 1. Sequence Note: This RefSeq record was created from transcript and genomic sequence data to make the sequence consistent with the reference genome assembly. The genomic coordites used for the transcript record were based on transcript alignments. Publication Note: This RefSeq record includes a subset of the publications that are available for this gene. Please see the Gene record to access additiol publications. ##Evidence-Data-START## Transcript exon combition :: AK297788.1 [ECO:0000332] ##Evidence-Data-END##
