Gene or accession: CG1977
Release: 2
Gene annotation error
Gene CG1977 has a mistake in the supporting evidence or functional assignment.
Comments: alpha-Spec is shown by Celera to have 2 isoforms. 1 isoform, CT6173,
is a very
good match to existing sequences for alpha-Spec. The second annotated isoform,
CT41026, seems to share a non-coding exon but not a coding exon with CT6173.
The sequences are very different and the translation from CT41026 shows no
similarity to existing alpha-Spec sequences. In fact it shows no similarity to
any protein in Swiss-prot or TrEMBL.
I believe CT41026 should not be annotated as an isoform of alpha-Spec, also
there is no other evidence from literature that alpha-Spec has splice variants.
thanks
