GeneRIFs

  • Results suggest imprinting of the paternal allele of SLC22A1LS gene in five fetal tissues: brain, liver, placenta, kidneys and lungs. [PMID 15175115]
  • SLC22A18/SLC22A18AS genes are a sense-antisense pair located at human chromosome segment 11p15.5. These genes are paternally imprinted. [PMID 18721868]
  • Using antibodies generated in rabbit, immunoprecipitation and Western blot analyses, translation of a 253-aa ORF at very low levels occurred. The translated protein was mainly localized in the cytoplasm. [PMID 18721868]
