Summary
Enables DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in defense response to other organism; positive regulation of transcription, DNA-templated; and regulation of toll-like receptor signaling pathway. Acts upstream of or within immunoglobulin mediated immune response; positive regulation of type I interferon production; and positive regulation of type I interferon-mediated signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in apical ectodermal ridge; embryo; liver; and ureter. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in immunodeficiency 39. Orthologous to human IRF7 (interferon regulatory factor 7). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

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.
