NFKBIZ - NFKB inhibitor zeta Gene
Also Known as IKBZ; INAP; MAIL
Species: Homo sapiens
About NFKBIZ
This gene has 11 transcripts (splice variants), 190 orthologues and 3 paralogues. Broad expression in bone marrow (RPKM 120.3), urinary bladder (RPKM 31.0) and 18 other tissues.
Summary
This gene is a member of the ankyrin-repeat family and is induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The C-terminal portion of the encoded product which contains the ankyrin repeats, shares high sequence similarity with the I kappa B family of proteins. The latter are known to play a role in inflammatory responses to LPS by their interaction with NF-B proteins through ankyrin-repeat domains. Studies in mouse indicate that this gene product is one of the nuclear I kappa B proteins and an activator of IL-6 production. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
