Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 2323
Gene name Fms related receptor tyrosine kinase 3 ligand
Gene symbol FLT3LG
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
FLFLG3LFLT3LIMD125
Chromosome 19
Chromosome location 19q13.33
Summary Dendritic cells (DCs) provide the key link between innate and adaptive immunity by recognizing pathogens and priming pathogen-specific immune responses. FLT3LG controls the development of DCs and is particularly important for plasmacytoid DCs and CD8 (see
