Gene information for MX1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID4599
Official gene symbolMX1
Full namemyxovirus (influenza virus) resistance 1, interferon-inducible protein p78 (mouse)
Aliases,IFI-78K,IFI78,MX,MxA,
Gene summaryIn 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. [provided by RefSeq]
