Target data

Function

Interferon-stimulated protein that plays a role in several biological processes including cell differentiation, autophagy and innate immunity (PubMed:16244109, PubMed:25710914, PubMed:30936875). Cooperates with CGAS to sense dsDNA and activates the STING-dependent type I IFN pathway (PubMed:25710914, PubMed:33619523). Mechanistically, gets acetylated upon bacterial infection and then translocates from nucleus into cytoplasm to recruit STING for activation of TBK1-dependent IRF3 nuclear translocation and IFN-beta release (PubMed:28529930). Inhibits the transcription of ribosomal RNA. May inhibit DNA binding by UBTF. Inhibits cell growth via p53/TP53 and RB1-dependent and independent pathways. Acts as a coactivator of RUNX2 during osteogenesis. May be involved in macrophage differentiation. Enables skeletal muscle and cardiac myocyte differentiation by sequestring Id proteins in the cytosol and promoting their ubiquitination and subsequent degradation.

Activity summary

Ifi204 also known as Interferon-activated gene 204 is a protein of the mouse involved in the immune response. It has a molecular mass of approximately 74 kilodaltons. This protein is expressed mainly in activated macrophages and neutrophils and contributes to the innate immune mechanism. It detects cytosolic DNA and activates the STING pathway to induce type I interferon production. It contains a HIN-200 domain that helps in recognizing specific DNA sequences.

Biological function summary

Interferon-activated gene 204 plays a role in the host defense mechanism. It functions as part of the cellular response to viral infections and potentially some bacterial infections. The protein is part of a larger complex involved in DNA sensing and it activates immune signaling pathways upon detecting foreign DNA. It interacts with components of the inflammasome participating in activating inflammatory responses necessary for pathogen clearance.

Pathways

Interferon-activated gene 204 participates in the cGAS-STING DNA sensing pathway. This pathway is essential for the production of type I interferons as a defense against viruses. The protein associates with cGAS and STING key players in the recognition of cytosolic DNA. Its role in this pathway highlights its importance in the body's first line of defense closely linking it to the activation of downstream signaling that involves IRF3 and NF-kB.

Associated diseases and disorders

Altered expression or function of Interferon-activated gene 204 has connections with autoimmunity and inflammatory diseases. Its dysregulation may lead to excessive inflammation contributing to conditions like systemic lupus erythematosus. In this context it interacts with proteins such as AIM2 which is part of the inflammasome complex involved in autoimmune inflammation. Understanding its precise role in these diseases could potentially lead to new therapeutic strategies for managing autoimmune disorders.
