ILR1

ILR1 is a gene that encodes a protein involved in cellular processes. The protein is a member of the interferon regulatory factor (IRF) family, which are transcription factors that play crucial roles in the immune system and in response to cellular stress. Specifically, the ILR1 protein is known to be involved in regulating gene expression. Its precise functions are still under active investigation, but research suggests it plays a part in antiviral responses and in maintaining cellular homeostasis. Mutations or alterations in the ILR1 gene have been associated with certain diseases, although the exact nature of these associations is complex and requires further study. Understanding the role of ILR1 is important for comprehending cellular defense mechanisms and could potentially lead to new therapeutic strategies for diseases related to immune dysfunction or viral infections.
