    Summary
    This gene encodes a member of the A-kinase anchoring protein (AKAP) family. These proteins are characterized by their ability to bind to the R subunit of protein kinase A (PKA) and anchor the protein at different subcellular locations. This protein has been shown to regulate apoptosis and to be involved in palatogenesis. Knockdown of this gene has been associated with altered histone modifications and reduced expression of developmental genes in mouse embryonic stem cells. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 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.

      Description
      Transcript Variant: This variant (2) uses an alternate splice site in an internal exon compared to variant 1. This variant is represented as non-coding because the use of the 5'-most expected translational start codon renders the transcript a candidate for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD).
