What's a GeneRIF?

Bozozok (Boz, also known as Dharma or Nieuwkoid) as a binding partner and substrate of Lnx-l.
Title: Organizer restriction through modulation of Bozozok stability by the E3 ubiquitin ligase Lnx-like.
ved is a target for the repressor Dha/Boz in zebrafish
Title: A novel repressor-type homeobox gene, ved, is involved in dharma/bozozok-mediated dorsal organizer formation in zebrafish.
Data show that the homeodomain protein bozozok (Boz) acts as a transcriptional repressor in zebrafish, and that Boz negatively regulates bone morphogenetic protein 2b in the prospective organizer.
Title: bozozok directly represses bmp2b transcription and mediates the earliest dorsoventral asymmetry of bmp2b expression in zebrafish.
Early onset of boz expression may be crucial for organizer establishment in the presence of ubiquitous maternal activators of ventralizing genes.
Title: Direct binding of Lef1 to sites in the boz promoter may mediate pre-midblastula-transition activation of boz expression.

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.
