What's a GeneRIF?

cis-regulation of early Dll-B expression is activated by a required submodule in the center of a 378bp region upstream of Dll-B, termed B1, driving posterior expression, which works in combination with redundant submodules
Title: Expression of the Distalless-B gene in Ciona is regulated by a pan-ectodermal enhancer module.
Contrary to the expectation for clustered gene duplicates, expression of Dll-A and Dll-B transcripts do not overlap temporally and only partially overlap spatially.
Title: Non-overlapping expression patterns of the clustered Dll-A/B genes in the ascidian Ciona intestinalis.

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.
