description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable cytokine activity. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of apoptotic process and positive regulation of cysteine-type endopeptidase activity. Located in extracellular space. Is expressed in alimentary system; brain; gonad; hemolymphoid system gland; and metanephros. Orthologous to human IL24 (interleukin 24).
