InnateDB Annotation
Summary
Nfil3 is an Il12b transcriptional inhibitor in macrophages. Interactions of macrophages with the enteric microbiota induce Nfil3 to limit their inflammatory capacity.
Nfil3 is a key regulator of common helper-like innate lymphoid cell progenitors as they emerge during early lymphopoiesis.
InnateDB Annotation from Orthologs
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)
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]
