Summary
[Homo sapiens] NFIL3 is essential for generation of the natural killer (NK) cell lineage.
[Homo sapiens] NFIL3 is an IL12B transcriptional inhibitor in macrophages. Interactions of macrophages with the enteric microbiota induce NFIL3 to limit their inflammatory capacity. (Demonstrated in murine model)
[Mus musculus] Nfil3 is an Il12b transcriptional inhibitor in macrophages. Interactions of macrophages with the enteric microbiota induce Nfil3 to limit their inflammatory capacity.
[Mus musculus] Nfil3 is a key regulator of common helper-like innate lymphoid cell progenitors as they emerge during early lymphopoiesis.
Entrez Gene
Summary The protein encoded by this gene is a transcriptional regulator that binds as a homodimer to activating transcription factor (ATF) sites in many cellular and viral promoters. The encoded protein represses PER1 and PER2 expression and therefore plays a role in the regulation of circadian rhythm. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2014]
