IRF7

IRF7

A gene on chromosome 11p15.5 that encodes a member of the interferon regulatory transcription factor (IRF) family, which have diverse roles such as virus-mediated activation of interferons and modulation of cell growth, differentiation, apoptosis and immune system activity. IRF7 plays a role in transcription activation of virus-inducible cellular genes, including interferon-beta chain genes.

After differential regulatory network construction and TED scoring, we found that the interferon regulatory factor ( IRF ) family members, including IRF1, IRF3, IRF5, IRF7, and IRF9, are important TFs in the early stage of DN.
These 719 genes are enriched in immune response pathways, such as interferon signaling, as demonstrated by the interferon regulatory factor 7 (Irf7) locus (Figure 4C; see also Excel Table S9).
(10) This pathway involves activation of TANK-binding kinase 1 (TBK1) and I[kappa]B kinase [epsilon] (IKK[epsilon]) followed by nuclear translocation of IRF7, a transcription factor acting directly as a transcription factor for type I IFN promoter and indirectly through its induction of type I IFN and the latter's induction of ISGF3.
The baseline expression levels of 25 IFN-regulated genes (MxA, GPR3, IL17RC, ISG15, TRAIL, OASL, IFIT1, IFIT2, RSAD2, OAS3, IFI44L, TRIM22, IL10, CXCL10, STAT1, OAS1, OAS2, IFNAR1, IFNAR2, IFN[beta], ISG20, IFI6, PKR, IRF7, and USP18) were examined but were not confirmed to have predictive value [53].

MyD88 interacts with interferon regulatory factor (IRF) 3 and IRF7 in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar): transgenic SsMyD88 modulates the IRF-induced type I interferon response and accumulates in aggresomes.
Nuestros resultados soportan esta informacion, ya que observamos que muchos genes inducibles y regulados por IFN[gamma], tales como IFI-16, IFI-30, IFI-44, IRF-3, IRF7 y IRF-1 estuvieron aumentados en los granulomas.
