IFNE (Interferon, Epsilon) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with IFNE include west nile fever. Among its related pathways are PEDF Induced Signaling and Jak-STAT signaling pathway. Gene Ontology (GO) annotations related to this gene include cytokine activity and type I interferon receptor binding. An important paralog of this gene is IFNA5. Type I interferon required for maintaining basal levels of IFN-regulated genes, including 2-5-oligoadenylate synthetase, IRF7 and ISG15, in the female reproductive tract. Directly mediates protection against viral and bacterial genital infections (By similarity).
