| Name | STON1-GTF2A1L readthrough |
| Description | STON1-GTF2A1L mRNAs are infrequent but naturally occurring read-through products of the neighboring STON1 and GTF2A1L genes. These transcripts encode fusion proteins composed of the vast majority of each of the individual elements, stonin 1 and general transcription factor IIA, 1-like. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. The significance of these read-through variants and the function of the resulting protein products have not yet been determined.

{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nIn a genome‐wide association study (GWAS) of Japanese patients with neovascular age‐related macular degeneration (AMD), a novel genomic locus—marked by the rs4482537 SNP—was identified in a region that includes the gene STON1‐GTF2A1L along with LHCGR and FSHR. Although the intrinsic cellular function of STON1‐GTF2A1L was not explicitly elaborated in the study, its genetic variation was found to be significantly associated with the bilaterality of neovascular AMD.
