    Summary
    This gene encodes a Storkhead-box_winged-helix domain containing protein. This protein is differentially expressed in decidual tissue and may be involved in the susceptibility to pre-eclampsia with fetal growth restriction. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]

    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.
