Il5 - interleukin 5 Gene
Species: Rattus norvegicus
About Il5
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 91 orthologues and is associated with 51 phenotypes. Low expression observed in reference dataset.
Summary
Enables cytokine activity and interleukin-5 receptor binding activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of B cell proliferation; positive regulation of eosinophil differentiation; and positive regulation of receptor signaling pathway via JAK-STAT. Located in extracellular space. Used to study asthma. Biomarker of several diseases, including allergic rhinitis; esophageal cancer; middle cerebral artery infarction; peptic esophagitis; and prostatic hypertrophy. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in asthma. Orthologous to human IL5 (interleukin 5). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
