Entrez ID 3596
Gene name Interleukin 13
Gene symbol IL13
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
IL-13P600
Chromosome 5
Chromosome location 5q31.1
Summary This gene encodes an immunoregulatory cytokine produced primarily by activated Th2 cells. This cytokine is involved in several stages of B-cell maturation and differentiation. It up-regulates CD23 and MHC class II expression, and promotes IgE isotype swit
