| Primary Identifier | MGI:1859212 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 7 | NCBI Gene Number | 54123 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in defense response to symbiont; positive regulation of macromolecule biosynthetic process; and regulation of toll-like receptor signaling pathway. Acts upstream of or within immunoglobulin mediated immune response; positive regulation of type I interferon-mediated signaling pathway; and regulation of gene expression. Predicted to be located in chromatin; cytosol; and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in apical ectodermal ridge; central nervous system; embryo; liver; and ureter. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in immunodeficiency 39. Orthologous to human IRF7 (interferon regulatory factor 7). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous null mice are more vulnerable to viral infection and exhibit decreased serum interferon levels in response to viral infection. [provided by MGI curators] |
