MEFV - MEFV innate immunity regulator, pyrin Gene
Also Known as FMF; MEF; PAAND; TRIM20
Species: Homo sapiens
About MEFV
This gene has 15 transcripts (splice variants), 86 orthologues, 80 paralogues and is associated with 8 phenotypes. Biased expression in appendix (RPKM 3.9), spleen (RPKM 3.2) and 11 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a protein, also known as pyrin or marenostrin, that is an important modulator of innate immunity. Mutations in this gene are associated with Mediterranean fever, a hereditary periodic fever syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
