Symbol
CSF2
Name
colony stimulating factor 2
Synonyms
  • colony stimulating factor 2 (granulocyte-macrophage)
  • colony-stimulating factor
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Enables cytokine activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to cytokine stimulus; myeloid leukocyte differentiation; and regulation of gene expression. Located in extracellular space and intracellular membrane-bounded organelle. Part of granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor receptor complex. Implicated in acute myeloid leukemia; juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia; neutropenia; pulmonary alveolar proteinosis; and visceral leishmaniasis. Biomarker of COVID-19; asthma; chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; and temporal arteritis.
RGD Description
The protein encoded by this gene is a cytokine that controls the production, differentiation, and function of granulocytes and macrophages. The active form of the protein is found extracellularly as a homodimer. This gene has been localized to a cluster of related genes at chromosome region 5q31, which is known to be associated with interstitial deletions in the 5q- syndrome and acute myelogenous leukemia. Other genes in the cluster include those encoding interleukins 4, 5, and 13. This gene plays a role in promoting tissue inflammation. Elevated levels of cytokines, including the one produced by this gene, have been detected in SARS-CoV-2 infected patients that develop acute respiratory distress syndrome. Mice deficient in this gene or its receptor develop pulmonary alveolar proteinosis. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2020]
