General Information (Source: NCBI Gene,UniProt)

Text mining Term interferon gamma
UniProt ID IFNG_RAT
Name Interferon gamma
IFN-gamma
Gene Names Ifng
Taxonomy Rattus norvegicus

General annotation

Function Produced by lymphocytes activated by specific antigens or mitogens. IFN-gamma, in addition to having antiviral activity, has important immunoregulatory functions.
