Name
tumor necrosis factor
Synonyms
  • DIF
  • RATTNF
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Enables protease binding activity; receptor ligand activity; and tumor necrosis factor receptor binding activity. Involved in several processes, including macrophage activation; positive regulation of cell communication; and regulation of primary metabolic process. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including apoptotic signaling pathway; regulation of macromolecule metabolic process; and response to bacterium. Located in several cellular components, including external side of plasma membrane; phagocytic cup; and recycling endosome. Is active in extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; genitourinary system; gut; integumental system; and lung. Used to study several diseases, including autoimmune disease (multiple); congestive heart failure; heart valve disease (multiple); idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis; and spondyloarthropathy. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including autoimmune disease (multiple); eye disease (multiple); liver disease (multiple); lung disease (multiple); and skin disease (multiple). Orthologous to human TNF (tumor necrosis factor).
MGI Description
PHENOTYPE: Mutations at this locus primarily affect the immune system, causing increased susceptibility to infection, failure to form splenic B-cell follicles, increased inflammation and impaired contact hypersensitivity. Homozygotes also may show metabolic defects. Combined deletions of certain regulatory regions in the 3' UTR are embryonic lethal (homozygous) or cause arthritis and intestinal and cardiac valve inflammation and reduced lifespan (heterozygous).
