What's a GeneRIF?

Data suggest expression of hepatocyte Insig1/Insig2a and Crebh/Creb3l3 (cAMP responsive element-binding protein 3-like 3 protein) can be up-regulated by dietary factors (here, dietary supplementation with hypotriglyceridemic R-alpha-lipoic acid).

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.
