Official Symbol:	IFNL4
NCBI Gene ID:	101180976
Content / Scale:	IFNAN
Official Full Name:	interferon lambda 4 (gene/pseudogene)
Species:	human
Summary:	This gene is a polymorphic pseudogene which, in some humans, encodes the interferon (IFN) lambda 4 protein. Humans are polymorphic for the dinucleotide TT/deltaG allele. Compared to the ancestral state in non-human primates, the TT allele produces a frameshift in the coding region of this gene which is predicted to induce nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. This allele, and an allele in the first intron of this gene, have experienced a rapid increase in frequency and show indications of positive selection. The ancestral states of these alleles are associated with an impaired ability to clear hepatitis C virus. This gene, like other type III interferons (IFNs), interacts with the IFN lambda receptor complex (IFNLR) whose signaling is generally restricted to epithelial cells. This gene resides in a cluster of four type III IFN genes and at least two pseudogenes on chromosome 19q13.2. In general, interferons are produced in response to viral infection and block viral replication and propagation to uninfected cells by activating the JAK-STAT pathway and up-regulating antiviral genes. Multiple alternatively spliced transcripts have been described for this gene but their biological validity and protein coding status is still being ascertained. [provided by RefSeq, May 2017].

 

Buy a siPOOL (siRNA Pool) for IFNL4

Order a complex pool of 30 siRNAs (siPOOL) for the specific gene knockdown of human gene IFNL4.

Product Description:

siPOOLs (siRNA pools) are high complexity pools of 30 optimally selected siRNAs designed to specifically knock-down the target gene of your choice.

Why 30 siRNAs?

Using 30 siRNAs at a picomolar concentration dilutes and significantly minimizes the off-target effects of each siRNA, therefore highly increasing the on-target specificity. On the other hand, individual siRNAs or low complexity siRNA pools containing only 2-4 siRNAs often display dominant off-target profiles and exhibit variable target gene knock-downs.

Product Formats:

• Individual siPOOLs: a pool of 30 distinct siRNAs provided as a single reagent
• siPOOL kits: include an individual siPOOL and a standard negative control

As reaction numbers depend on transfection efficiencies and well/plate format used, please refer to our FAQ section or siPOOL transfection protocol for more information.
