Lm1

Mus musculus

PHENOTYPE: This locus controls an antigen present on thymocytes, T lymphoblasts, some plasmacytomas and some myeloid cells. The a allele determines the Lm-1.1 specificity in BALB/c strain; the b allele determines Lm-1.2 in C57BL/6, NZB, C.B-17, C.B-23 and C.B-26. [provided by MGI curators]

BCYRN1

Homo sapiens

This gene, which encodes a neural small non-messenger RNA, is a member of the family of interspersed repetitive DNA, and its product represents an example of a primate tissue-specific RNA polymerase III transcript. The RNA sequence is divided into three domains: a 5' portion homologous to the Alu Lm, a central adenosine-rich region, and the terminal 43-nt nonrepetitive domain. It is believed that this gene was retropositionally generated and recruited into a function regulating dendritic protein biosynthesis. At least two pseudogenes of this gene have been identified.
