| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Predicted to enable chemoattractant activity; chemokine receptor binding activity; and heparin binding activity. Involved in cellular response to interleukin-17. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including defense response to virus; negative regulation of myoblast differentiation; and negative regulation of myoblast fusion. Located in external side of plasma membrane and extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; axial skeleton; hemolymphoid system; and liver. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hepatitis B; middle cerebral artery infarction; and type 1 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human CXCL10 (C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 10). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygouse for disruptions of this gene have immune system abnormalities leading to increased susceptibility toautoimmune disease and to some viral infections.
