Gene information for TNFAIP3 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID7128
Official gene symbolTNFAIP3
Full nametumor necrosis factor, alpha-induced protein 3
Aliases,A20,MGC104522,MGC138687,MGC138688,OTUD7C,TNFA1P2,
Gene summaryThis gene was identified as a gene whose expression is rapidly induced by the tumor necrosis factor (TNF). The protein encoded by this gene is a zinc finger protein, and has been shown to inhibit NF-kappa B activation as well as TNF-mediated apoptosis. Knockout studies of a similar gene in mice suggested that this gene is critical for limiting inflammation by terminating TNF-induced NF-kappa B responses. [provided by RefSeq]
