GPR75-ASB3 - GPR75-ASB3 Readthrough

This locus represents naturally occurring read-through transcription between the neighboring GPR75 (G protein-coupled receptor 75) and ASB3 (ankyrin repeat and SOCS box containing 3) on chromosome 2. The transcript includes exons from both GPR75 and ASB3 and translation initiates in the 5' non-coding exon of GPR75. The resulting protein has a novel N-terminus but is otherwise identical to that encoded by ASB3.[provided by RefSeq, Feb 2011]
