Summary: Predicted to enable cytokine activity. Predicted to be involved in cell surface receptor signaling pathway; positive regulation of interleukin-12 production; and positive regulation of signal transduction. Predicted to act upstream of or within gene expression; lymph node development; and skin development. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Orthologous to human LTB (lymphotoxin beta). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

What's a GeneRIF?

Hepatic lymphotoxin-beta(LT-beta) expression is induced early following bile duct ligation. Kupffer cells may be an intrahepatic source of LT-beta.

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.
