Official Full Name: interferon, alpha 5provided by RGD
Primary source: RGD:1359312
See related: EnsemblRapid:ENSRNOG00000079725 AllianceGenome:RGD:1359312
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: PROVISIONAL
Organism: Rattus norvegicus
Lineage: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Glires; Rodentia; Myomorpha; Muroidea; Muridae; Murinae; Rattus
Also known as: Ifna1; Ifna1l1; IFN-alpha1
Summary: Predicted to enable cytokine activity and type I interferon receptor binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including lymphocyte activation involved in immune response; response to exogenous dsRNA; and type I interferon-mediated signaling pathway. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever; common cold; hepatitis B; liver disease (multiple); and sarcoidosis. Orthologous to several human genes including IFNA1 (interferon alpha 1); IFNA10 (interferon alpha 10); and IFNA13 (interferon alpha 13). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

What's a GeneRIF?

IFN-gamma is able to activate rat intestinal mucous microvascular endothelial cells, thereby leading to upregulated expressions of IFN-alpha/beta.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
