Background: | Specifically binds to the upstream regulatory region of type I IFN and IFN-inducible MHC class I genes (the interferon consensus sequence (ICS)). Plays a regulatory role in cells of the immune system. Involved in CD8+ dendritic cell differentiation by forming a complex with the BATF-JUNB heterodimer in immune cells, leading to recognition of AICE sequence (5'-TGAnTCA/GAAA-3'), an immune-specific regulatory element, followed by cooperative binding of BATF and IRF8 and activation of genes. |

UniProt Protein Function: | IRF8: Specifically binds to the upstream regulatory region of type I IFN and IFN-inducible MHC class I genes (the interferon consensus sequence (ICS)). Plays a negative regulatory role in cells of the immune system. Interacts (via C-terminus) with TRIM21 (via C-terminus). Interacts with COPS2. By IFNG/IFN-gamma. Predominantly expressed in lymphoid tissues. Belongs to the IRF family.Protein type: Transcription factor; DNA-bindingCellular Component: nucleoplasm; nucleusMolecular Function: protein binding; DNA binding; transcription factor activityBiological Process: positive regulation of interferon-gamma production; response to bacterium; regulation of transcription, DNA-dependent; transcription, DNA-dependent; positive regulation of interleukin-12 production; positive regulation of transcription, DNA-dependent; defense response to bacterium; immune response; myeloid cell differentiation; defense response to protozoan; phagocytosis |
UniProt Protein Details: | |
NCBI Summary: | The protein encoded by this gene is a transcription factor that belongs to the interferon regulatory factor family. Proteins belonging to this family have a DNA binding domain at the amino terminus that contains five well-conserved tryptophan-rich repeats. This domain recognizes DNA sequences similar to the interferon-stimulated response element. The protein encoded by this gene promotes or suppresses lineage-specific genes to regulate the differentation of lymphoid and myeloid lineage cells. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2014] |
