Summary
This gene is one of several genes encoding pulmonary-surfactant associated proteins (SFTPA) located on chromosome 10. Mutations in this gene and a highly similar gene located nearby, which affect the highly conserved carbohydrate recognition domain, are associated with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. The current version of the assembly displays only a single centromeric SFTPA gene pair rather than the two gene pairs shown in the previous assembly which were thought to have resulted from a duplication. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]
Annotation information
Note: In the NCBI Build 36 reference assembly, there were four SFTPA genes on chromosome 10, with the SFTPA1/SFTPA2 gene pair being centromeric to a SFTPA1B/SFTPA2B pair. In June 2009, the Genome Reference Consortium determined that the duplicated region containing one of these gene pairs is in error, and thus, only one SFTPA1/SFTPA2 pair is present in the GRCh37 reference assembly.

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.
