Comments
  • FUNCTION: Probably controls the inflammatory response in myelomonocytic cells at the level of the cytoskeleton organization.
  • SUBUNIT: Interacts with PSTPIP1.
  • SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Isoform 1: Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Note=Associated with microtubules and with the filamentous actin of perinuclear filaments and peripheral lamellar ruffles.
  • SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Isoform 2: Nucleus.
  • ALTERNATIVE PRODUCTS: 2 named isoforms [FASTA] produced by alternative splicing.
    Name1
    SynonymsFL
    Isoform IDO15553-2
    This is the isoform sequence displayed in this entry.
    Name2
    SynonymsD2
    Isoform IDO15553-1
    Features which should be applied to build the isoform sequence: VSP_008223.
  • TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in peripheral blood leukocytes, particularly in mature granulocytes and to a lesser extent in monocytes but not in lymphocytes. Detected in spleen, lung and muscle, probably as a result of leucocyte infiltration in these tissues. Not expressed in thymus, prostate, testis, ovary, small intestine, colon, heart, brain, placenta, liver, kidney, pancreas. Expression detected in several myeloid leukemic, colon cancer, and prostate cancer cell lines.
  • DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: First detected in bone marrow promyelocytes. Expression increases throughout myelocyte differentiation and peaks in the mature myelomonocytic cells.
  • INDUCTION: In monocytes, by treatment with colchicine and IFN-alpha, and by the proinflammatory cytokines IFN-gamma, TNF-alpha and LPS. Repressed in monocytes by the antiinflammatory cytokines IL-10, TGF-beta and IL-4. In neutrophils, colchicine, TNF-alpha, LPS, IL-10, INF-alpha and IL-4 has no effect on expression. INF-gamma increases expression in neutrophils.
  • DISEASE: Defects in MEFV are the cause of familial Mediterranean fever autosomal recessive (ARFMF) [MIM:249100]. ARFMF is an inherited disorder characterized by recurrent episodic fever, serosal inflammation and pain in the abdomen, chest or joints. ARFMF is frequently complicated by amyloidosis, which leads to renal failure and can be prophylactically treated with colchicine. ARFMF primarily affects ancestral ethnic groups living around the Mediterranean basin: North African Jews, Armenians, Arabs and Turks. The disease is also distributed in other populations including Greeks, Cypriots, Italians and Spanish, although at a lower prevalence.
  • DISEASE: Defects in MEFV are the cause of familial Mediterranean fever autosomal dominant (ADFMF) [MIM:134610]. ADFMF is characterized by periodic fever, serosal inflammation and pain in the abdomen, chest or joints as seen also in the autosomal recessive form of the disease. It is associated with renal amyloidosis and characterized by colchicine unresponsiveness.
  • SIMILARITY: Contains 1 B box-type zinc finger.
  • SIMILARITY: Contains 1 B30.2/SPRY domain.
  • SIMILARITY: Contains 1 DAPIN domain.
