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 IFNA4 (interferon alpha 4). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

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.
