Description : IFN are a family of cytokines with potent antiviral, antiproliferative and immunomodulatory properties, classified based on their binding specificity to cell surface receptors. Mature mouse IFNA7 consists of 166 aa and shares 59% identity with human IFNA7. The type I IFNs bind to the interferon alpha receptor (IFNAR), which consists of two subunits: IFNAR1 (alpha -subunit) and IFNAR2 (beta -subunit) . Individual IFN alpha subtypes are known to display unique efficacies to viral protection, with IFNA7 showing slightly lower antiviral potency against Mengo virus but maintaining similar anti-proliferative potency in B16 melanoma cells.
