Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 101180976
Gene name Interferon lambda 4 (gene/pseudogene)
Gene symbol IFNL4
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
IFNAN
Chromosome 19
Chromosome location 19q13.2
Summary This gene is a polymorphic pseudogene which, in some humans, encodes the interferon (IFN) lambda 4 protein. Humans are polymorphic for the dinucleotide TT/deltaG allele. Compared to the ancestral state in non-human primates, the TT allele produces a frame
