The following Neu4 gene cDNA ORF clone sequences were retrieved from the NCBI Reference Sequence Database (RefSeq). These sequences represent the protein coding region of the Neu4 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 BC070438.1. On May 16, 2004 this sequence version replaced NM_173772.2. Transcript Variant: This variant (2) lacks an alternate exon compared to variant 1, which causes translation initiation at a downstream AUG. The resulting isoform (2) is shorter at the N-terminus compared to isoform 1. ##Evidence-Data-START## Transcript exon combination :: BC070438.1, AK034236.1 [ECO:0000332] RNAseq introns :: single sample supports all introns SAMN01164131, SAMN01164132 [ECO:0000348] ##Evidence-Data-END## COMPLETENESS: complete on the 3' end. |
