Summary: Predicted to enable RNA binding activity. Involved in response to virus. Acts upstream of or within antiviral innate immune response and cellular response to interferon-alpha. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum. Predicted to be active in cytosol. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; integumental system; and respiratory system. Orthologous to human IFIT2 (interferon induced protein with tetratricopeptide repeats 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
