Summary
Predicted to enable CD4 receptor binding activity and cytokine activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including induction of positive chemotaxis; leukocyte chemotaxis; and positive regulation of cytokine production. Predicted to act upstream of or within positive regulation of chemokine production; positive regulation of neutrophil activation; and signal transduction. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including Flemming body; focal adhesion; and nuclear speck. Biomarker of borna disease; glioblastoma; and periodontal disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in asthma; colorectal adenocarcinoma; and prostate cancer. Orthologous to human IL16 (interleukin 16). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
