Protein name Gamma-interferon-inducible protein 16 (Ifi-16) (Interferon-inducible myeloid differentiation transcriptional activator)
Protein function Binds double-stranded DNA. Binds preferentially to supercoiled DNA and cruciform DNA structures. Seems to be involved in transcriptional regulation. May function as a transcriptional repressor. Could have a role in the regulation of hematopoieti
