Primary Identifier | MGI:1859325 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 2 | NCBI Gene Number | 54450 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable cytokine activity and interleukin-1 receptor binding activity. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of interleukin-6 production. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in pustular psoriasis 14. Orthologous to human IL36RN (interleukin 36 receptor antagonist). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a reporter allele are overtly normal with no apparent histopathological abnormalities or immune cell alterations. Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit increased sensitivity to IMQ-induced psoriasis. [provided by MGI curators] |
