nomenclature history
As this is 1 of 2 genes described in Xenopus, and is the true ortholog of the human SMAD4, a general rule of adding .1 to the gene symbol ( reflecting gene 1 in the gene name) has been relaxed and smad4.1 is listed as a synonym. This will maintain standard way to reference this gene in publications. This 'relaxing' of the nomenclature rules/ guideline will be run by the XGNC and the HGNC for approval.
23FEB2023 After review by Ref Seq curator David Webb, the name of this gene has reverted to SMAD4, removing the 'gene 1' suffix, as the 2nd smad4 gene (smad4.2) has been renamed smad10.
