Biomarker of several diseases, including brain disease (multiple); chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; fatty liver disease (multiple); prostatitis; and ureteral obstruction. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including asthma; hematologic cancer (multiple); lung disease (multiple); macular degeneration; and small cell carcinoma. Orthologous to human NQO1 (NAD(P)H quinone dehydrogenase 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

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.
