The following Dffa gene cDNA ORF clone sequences were retrieved from the NCBI Reference Sequence Database (RefSeq). These sequences represent the protein coding region of the Dffa cDNA ORF which is encoded by the open reading frame (ORF) sequence. ORF sequences can be delivered in our standard vector, pcDNA3.1+/C-(K)DYK or the vector of your choice as an expression/transfection-ready ORF clone. Not the clone you want?

Comment | Comment: VALIDATED REFSEQ: This record has undergone validation or preliminary review. The reference sequence was derived from BY170336.1, BY208552.1 and AK079634.1. On Sep 24, 2013 this sequence version replaced NM_010044.2. Transcript Variant: This variant (2) contains an alternate 3' terminal exon, resulting in a different 3' UTR and 3' coding region, compared to variant 1. It encodes isoform b, which has a shorter and distinct C-terminus compared to isoform a. Publication Note: This RefSeq record includes a subset of the publications that are available for this gene.
