Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody to IFRD1

This gene is an immediate early gene that encodes a protein related to interferon~gamma. This protein may function as a transcriptional co~activator/repressor that controls the growth and differentiation of specific cell types during embryonic development and tissue regeneration. Mutations in this gene are associated with sensory/motor neuropathy with ataxia. This gene may also be involved in modulating the pathogenesis of cystic fibrosis lung disease. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2010]
