Gene ID: 3660 | Gene type: protein coding

About IRF2

Cytogenetic location: 4q35.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 4:184,387,729-184,474,550 (from NCBI)

This gene has 23 transcripts (splice variants), 231 orthologues and 8 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in spleen (RPKM 28.3), lymph node (RPKM 28.2) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

IRF2 encodes interferon regulatory factor 2, a member of the interferon regulatory transcription factor (IRF) family. IRF2 competitively inhibits the IRF1-mediated transcriptional activation of interferons alpha and beta, and presumably other genes that employ IRF1 for transcription activation. However, IRF2 also functions as a transcriptional activator of histone H4. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
