LTA - lymphotoxin alpha Gene
Also Known as Tnfb
Species: Rattus norvegicus
About LTA
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 239 orthologues, 8 paralogues and is associated with 55 phenotypes. Biased expression in Spleen (RPKM 15.3), Thymus (RPKM 13.) and 1 other tissue.
Summary
Predicted to enable cytokine activity and tumor necrosis factor receptor binding activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of fibroblast proliferation; positive regulation of glial cell proliferation; and response to lipopolysaccharide. Located in extracellular space. Biomarker of cystitis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including artery disease (multiple); autoimmune disease (multiple); glucose metabolism disease (multiple); leishmaniasis (multiple); and lung disease (multiple). Orthologous to human LTA (lymphotoxin alpha). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
