CT2.1Aliases from NCBI:
BAGE1Unified entry for BAGE, BAGE2, BAGE3, BAGE4, BAGE5
More information
BAGE2, BAGE3, BAGE4 and BAGE5 align to the same genomic locus of BAGE/BAGE1, and only there. Therefore, they are the single and same gene.
BAGE1's RefSeq NM_001187 is a different splicing variant compared to the RefSeqs of BAGE2 (NM_182482), BAGE3 (NM_182481), 4 (NM_181704) and 5 (NM_182484). RefSeqs for BAGE3, 4 and 5 present gaps/mismatches in the genomic alignment. BAGE2's RefSeq NM_182482 aligns with 100% ID to the genome.
