|---|---|
| Gene Symbol | AIF1 |
| Gene Full Name | allograft inflammatory factor 1 |
| Background | AIF1 / Iba 1 is a protein that binds actin and calcium. This gene is induced by cytokines and interferon and may promote macrophage activation and growth of vascular smooth muscle cells and T-lymphocytes. Polymorphisms in this gene may be associated with systemic sclerosis. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, but the full-length and coding nature of some of these variants is not certain. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016] |
| Function | AIF1 / Iba 1 is an Actin-binding protein. It enhances membrane ruffling and RAC activation. Enhances the actin-bundling activity of LCP1. Binds calcium. Plays a role in RAC signaling and in phagocytosis. May play a role in macrophage activation and function. Promotes the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells and of T-lymphocytes. Enhances lymphocyte migration. Plays a role in vascular inflammation. [UniProt] |
| Cellular Localization | Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Cell projection, ruffle membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side. Cell projection, phagocytic cup. Note=Associated with the actin cytoskeleton at membrane ruffles and at sites of phagocytosis. [UniProt] |
| Research Area | Cell Biology and Cellular Response antibody; Immune System antibody; Metabolism antibody; Neuroscience antibody; Activated Macrophage/Microglia Study antibody; Neuroinflammation Study antibody; Macroglial Marker antibody |
| Calculated MW | 17 kDa |
| PTM | Phosphorylated on serine residues. [UniProt] |
