Gene:
PR domain containing 1, with ZNF domain
Gene ID:
200009
Symbol:
PRDM1
Species:
1000
Description:
This gene encodes a protein that acts as a repressor of beta-interferon gene expression. The protein binds specifically to the PRDI (positive regulatory domain I element) of the beta-IFN gene promoter. Transcription of this gene increases upon virus induction. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different isoforms have been reported.
