The abbreviated name of this ORF/gene:
eGFP
The description of the protein encoded in this ORF:
enhanced green fluorescent protein
The translational frameshift (ribosome slippage) involved:
  0
The ribosome read-through involved:
  no
The alternative forms of this protein occur by the alternative initiation of translation:
  not tested
The ORF absolute position (the base range includes START and STOP codons or their equivalents):

Remarks:
The NDST2 variant shares overlaps with the exon1 of NDST4L, which contains a promoter used to transcribe the
NDST4S variant. The promoter in NDST2 thus might have escaped detection.
