About Lif

Summary

Enables cytokine activity and growth factor activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including animal organ development; generation of neurons; and positive regulation of macromolecule metabolic process. Located in extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; cranium; early conceptus; and female reproductive system. Orthologous to human LIF (LIF interleukin 6 family cytokine). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
