Mass (Da): 29150
Number AA: 261
UniProt ID: P13284
Locus ID: 10437
COSMIC ID: IFI30
Gene location on chromosome: 19p13.11
Number of cancer specimens: 19717
Percent of cancer specimens with mutations: 0.12
Normal role description: Metabolic enzyme. Thiol reductase. Lysosomal thiol reductase that can reduce protein disulfide bonds. May facilitate the complete unfolding of proteins destined for lysosomal degradation. Plays an important role in antigen processing. Facilitates the generation of MHC class II-restricted epitodes from disulfide bond-containing antigen by the endocytic reduction of disulfide bonds. Facilitates also MHC class I-restricted recognition of exogenous antigens containing disulfide bonds by CD8+ T cells or crosspresentation. Expressed constitutively in antigen-presenting cells and induced by IFN-gamma in other cell types.
