Proposed merge of Migration inducting gene 7 into BCAR3

See User_talk:Ajpolino#More_gene_questions - appears to have been renamed. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 06:31, 22 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I (J. Suzanne Lindsey) discovered Mig7 long noncoding mRNA that is translated via programmed frameshifting and is definitely NOT BCAR3. Mig7 is transcribed antisense from the same region as BCAR3 but is only 1.2 kb. The translated protein, which bears no similarity/homology to BCAR3, is very small ~11kD by immunoblot. Furthermore, Mig7 is not expressed by any normal tissue beyond gestation, unlike BCAR3 which is, and furthermore has no homology with mouse mRNAs or proteins. There is homology with non human primates. The internet is filled with misinformation. We have not published recently because we are now a biotech company developing therapeutics to this unusual protein, Mig7. 2603:6010:1E20:58A5:15AB:A86C:6A18:48F5 (talk) 18:03, 22 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

My mistake. I assume everyone is ok with me closing down this merge proposal? If not, feel free to reopen any time. Thanks all! Ajpolino (talk) 18:43, 23 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
