Also Known as 1-8D; DSPA2c
Species: Homo sapiens
About IFITM2
This gene has 23 transcripts (splice variants), 246 orthologues and 4 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in appendix (RPKM 262.7), spleen (RPKM 209.9) and 23 other tissues.
Summary
Interferon-induced transmembrane (IFITM) proteins are a family of interferon induced Antiviral proteins. The family contains five members, including IFITM1, IFITM2 and IFITM3 and belong to the CD225 superfamily. The protein encoded by this gene restricts cellular entry by diverse viral pathogens, such as influenza A virus, Ebola virus and Sars-CoV-2. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2021]
