| Gene Summary |
Enables cytokine activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of cell population proliferation; positive regulation of cell communication; and regulation of macromolecule biosynthetic process. Located in extracellular space and perikaryon. Used to study several diseases, including Chagas disease; allergic conjunctivitis; allergic rhinitis; renal fibrosis; and ureteral obstruction. Biomarker of several diseases, including artery disease (multiple); autoimmune thyroiditis; obesity; pulpitis; and tongue squamous cell carcinoma. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including ataxia telangiectasia; autoimmune disease (multiple); eczema herpeticum; factor VIII deficiency; and leukemia (multiple). Orthologous to human IFNG (interferon gamma). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025] |
