Source-derived summary

Leiomodin 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the LMOD1 gene.

Function

The leiomodin 1 protein has a putative membrane-spanning region and 2 types of tandemly repeated blocks. The transcript is expressed in all tissues tested, with the highest levels in thyroid, eye muscle, skeletal muscle, and ovary. Increased expression of leiomodin 1 may be linked to Graves' disease and thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].

Editorial summary

“Leiomodin 1” enters the record as protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens. Crown Archives preserves that source wording while asking what Leiomodin, protein-coding and gene can confirm, complicate or overturn.

Editorial reviewA practical orientation to terminology and classification, particularly when read beside dated observations, specimens or technical literature. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—2008—that can be checked directly. The selected authority fields contribute no independent date. Its strongest next move is a source search built around Leiomodin, protein-coding and gene.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

“Leiomodin 1” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Leiomodin, protein-coding and gene provides the most credible route into that argument.

Evidence profile

Datasets, specimens, observations and peer-reviewed methods provide the appropriate test for the technical claims summarized here. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 8, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q18037701. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2008.

Critical limits

Current terminology should not be projected backward without checking the classification used when the underlying evidence was created. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Check terminology, classification and the date of the cited evidence. Scientific names and technical consensus can change while older records retain historical value.
