Il17f - interleukin 17F

Predicted to enable cytokine binding activity; protein dimerization activity; and signaling receptor binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including defense response to bacterium; interleukin-17-mediated signaling pathway; and regulation of cytokine production. Predicted to act upstream of or within positive regulation of cytokine production involved in inflammatory response and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be located in extracellular space. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis. Orthologous to human IL17F (interleukin 17F).
