Summary: Involved in negative regulation of viral entry into host cell and response to virus. Acts upstream of or within defense response to symbiont; negative regulation of cell population proliferation; and receptor-mediated endocytosis. Located in several cellular components, including apical part of cell; cell surface; and endoplasmic reticulum. Is expressed in several structures, including egg cylinder; embryo ectoderm; genitourinary system; gut; and mesenchyme derived from lateral plate. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in COVID-19. Orthologous to human IFITM3 (interferon induced transmembrane protein 3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
Expression: Broad expression in liver adult (RPKM 350.2), subcutaneous fat pad adult (RPKM 292.7) and 19 other tissues See more

IFITM3 deficiency in a new knockout (KO) mouse model increases weight loss and mortality following influenza virus infections. Infected IFITM3 KO mice developed aberrant cardiac electrical activity, including decreased heart rate and irregular, arrhythmic RR (interbeat) intervals. Findings reveal an essential role for IFITM3 in limiting influenza virus replication and pathogenesis in heart tissue.
Title: IFITM3 protects the heart during influenza virus infection.
Study in influenza virus infection mouse models found that Ifitm3 is rapidly up-regulated by T cells following their activation and this occurred independently of type I and II interferon and the interferon regulatory factors 3 and 7. Up-regulation of Ifitm3 on effector T cells protected these cells from virus infection and imparted a survival advantage at sites of virus infection.

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.
