Chromosome | 10 | NCBI Gene Number | 20847 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable several functions, including RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; identical protein binding activity; and ubiquitin-like protein ligase binding activity. Involved in negative regulation of type I interferon-mediated signaling pathway and type I interferon-mediated signaling pathway. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; early conceptus; and genitourinary system. Used to study Zika fever. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Zika fever; immunodeficiency 44; and neutropenia. Orthologous to human STAT2 (signal transducer and activator of transcription 2). PHENOTYPE: Immune response is impaired in homozygous null mice. [provided by MGI curators] |
