High impact information on Ifi204

  • Interferon action: nucleolar and nucleoplasmic localization of the interferon-inducible 72-kD protein that is encoded by the Ifi 204 gene from the gene 200 cluster [1].
  • This increase is probably due to the activation of the gene encoding 204 (Ifi204) by Smad transcription factor, including Smad1, -4, and -5 [2].
  • Moreover, the role of p204 in the control of cell growth in vivo was investigated by generating transgenic mice in which the Ifi 204 gene was constitutively expressed in all tissues [3].
  • The interferon-inducible gene, Ifi204, is transcriptionally activated in response to M-CSF, and its expression favors macrophage differentiation in myeloid progenitor cells [4].
  • The murine homolog of the HIN 200 family, Ifi 204, is constitutively expressed in myeloid cells and selectively induced in the monocyte/macrophage lineage [5].
 

Associations of Ifi204 with chemical compounds

  • Ras did not promote phosphorylation or translocation to the cytoplasm of mutated p204 in which serine 179 was replaced by alanine. p204 overexpression inhibited the anchorage-independent proliferation of cells expressing Ras(Q61L) oncoprotein [6].
 

Biological context of Ifi204

  • The presence of an additional transcribed region in intron 4 of Ifi203a and b suggests the possibility of alternative splicing, and a spliced variant of the Ifi204' mRNA exhibits 91% sequence identity with a related but unmapped D3 mRNA [7].
  • These results demonstrate that MCMV may exploit the Ifi204 gene to regulate the cell cycle and enhance its DNA synthesis [8].
  • The activity of a reporter gene driven by the mouse Ifi204 promoter induced following virus infection showed that this increase was due to transcriptional activation [8].
 

Anatomical context of Ifi204

  • The mouse interferon-inducible gene Ifi204 product interacts with the Tpr protein, a component of the nuclear pore complex [9].
