What's a GeneRIF?

Hrk deficiency does not significantly attenuate the widespread apoptosis seen in the Bcl-x (-/-) embryonic nervous system, indicating that other BH3-only molecules, alone or in combination, may regulate BAX activation in immature neurons.

Title: [The effect of antisense oligonucleoties specific to the harakiri mRNA on spontaneous and induced defects of mouse preimplantation embryo development].
in response to PAHs, Ahr-mediated activation of the harakiri, BCL2 interacting protein (contains only BH3 domain), was necessary for execution of cell death.
Title: Maternal exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons diminishes murine ovarian reserve via induction of Harakiri.
These results demonstrate that HRK contributes to apoptosis signalling elicited by trophic factor withdrawal in certain neuronal populations but is dispensable for apoptosis of haematopoietic cells.
Title: Hrk/DP5 contributes to the apoptosis of select neuronal populations but is dispensable for haematopoietic cell apoptosis.
DP5 plays an important role in neuronal cell death induced by axotomy and NGF deprivation through the regulation of mitochondrial function and caspase-3 activation
Title: Critical role for DP5/Harakiri, a Bcl-2 homology domain 3-only Bcl-2 family member, in axotomy-induced neuronal cell death.

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.
