Functional domains of interferon regulatory factor I (IRF-1).
Interferon (IFN) regulatory factors (IRFs) are a family of transcription factors among which are IRF-1, IRF-2, and IFN consensus sequence binding protein (ICSBP). These factors share sequence homology in the N-terminal DNA-binding domain. IRF-1 and IRF-2 are further related and have additional homologous sequences within their C-termini. Whereas IRF-2 and ICSBP are identified as transcriptional...
متن کاملMolecular cloning and characterization of interferon regulatory factor 7 (IRF-7) in Japanese flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus.
Interferon regulatory factor (IRF) 7 in mammals is known to be a key player in regulating the type I interferon (IFN) response to viral infection as a transcription activator of IFNs and IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs). In this study, a full-length cDNA of Japanese flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus, (Po)IRF-7 was cloned and characterized. PoIRF-7 is 2032 bp in length, with an open reading frame (ORF...
متن کاملIRF 1 ( interferon regulatory factor 1 )
Hugo: IRF1 Other names: IRF-1; MAR Location: 5q23.3 Note: Interferon regulatory factor 1 belongs to a family of transcription factors described for their role in regulating type I and type II interferons. Specifically, IRF1 has been identified as an activator of interferon alpha and beta transcription. Furthermore, it has been shown to play a role in the regulation of tumour suppression. IRF1 l...
متن کاملOpposing Roles for Interferon Regulatory Factor-3 (IRF-3) and Type I Interferon Signaling during Plague
Type I interferons (IFN-I) broadly control innate immunity and are typically transcriptionally induced by Interferon Regulatory Factors (IRFs) following stimulation of pattern recognition receptors within the cytosol of host cells. For bacterial infection, IFN-I signaling can result in widely variant responses, in some cases contributing to the pathogenesis of disease while in others contributi...
متن کاملCritical role for interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF-3) and IRF-7 in type I interferon-mediated control of murine norovirus replication.
Human noroviruses (HuNoV) are the major cause of epidemic, nonbacterial gastroenteritis in the world. The short course of HuNoV-induced symptoms has implicated innate immunity in control of norovirus (NoV) infection. Studies using murine norovirus (MNV) confirm the importance of innate immune responses during NoV infection. Type I alpha and beta interferons (IFN-α/β) limit HuNoV replicon functi...
