Irf7 - interferon regulatory factor 7 Gene

About Irf7

Summary

Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including defense response to Other organism; positive regulation of type I interferon production; and regulation of Toll-like Receptor signaling pathway. Predicted to act upstream of or within immunoglobulin mediated immune response; positive regulation of type I interferon production; and positive regulation of type I interferon-mediated signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in immunodeficiency 39. Orthologous to human IRF7 (interferon regulatory factor 7). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
