About IFNA21

Cytogenetic location: 9p21.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 9:21,165,637-21,166,660 (from NCBI)

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 588 orthologues and 16 paralogues.

Summary

This gene is a member of the alpha interferon gene cluster on the short arm of chromosome 9. Interferons are cytokines produced in response to viral Infection that mediate the immune response and interfere with viral replication. The encoded protein is a type I interferon and may play a specific role in the Antiviral response to rubella virus. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2011]
