Entrez gene ID | | 4599 |
Official gene symbol | | MX1 |
Full name | | myxovirus (influenza virus) resistance 1, interferon-inducible protein p78 (mouse) |
Aliases | | ,IFI-78K,IFI78,MX,MxA, |
Gene summary | | In mouse, the interferon-inducible Mx protein is responsible for a specific antiviral state against influenza virus infection. The protein encoded by this gene is similar to the mouse protein as determined by its antigenic relatedness, induction conditions, physicochemical properties, and amino acid analysis. This cytoplasmic protein is a member of both the dynamin family and the family of large GTPases. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene.
