Gene information for IRF3 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID3661
Official gene symbolIRF3
Full nameinterferon regulatory factor 3
Aliases,-,
Gene summaryIRF3 encodes interferon regulatory factor 3, a member of the interferon regulatory transcription factor (IRF) family. IRF3 is found in an inactive cytoplasmic form that upon serine/threonine phosphorylation forms a complex with CREBBP. This complex translocates to the nucleus and activates the transcription of interferons alpha and beta, as well as other interferon-induced genes. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq]
