Gene name Interferon lambda 1
Gene symbol IFNL1
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
IL-29IL29
Chromosome 19
Chromosome location 19q13.2
Summary This gene encodes a cytokine distantly related to type I interferons and the IL-10 family. This gene, interleukin 28A (IL28A), and interleukin 28B (IL28B) are three closely related cytokine genes that form a cytokine gene cluster on a chromosomal region m
