What's a GeneRIF?

In a model of FtMT overexpression, during dietary challenge, mice are leaner but exhibit glucose intolerance, low adiponectin levels, increased reactive oxygen species damage, and elevated GDF15 and FGF21 levels, indicating metabolically dysfunctional fat. Despite harboring highly dysfunctional fat, mice display massive beta-cell hyperplasia, reflecting a beneficial mitochondria-induced fat-to-pancreas interorgan signa...

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.
