cat-2

Caenorhabditis elegans

Enables tyrosine 3-monooxygenase activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to amphetamine; dopamine biosynthetic process from tyrosine; and male mating behavior. Located in axon. Expressed in dopaminergic neurons; socket cell; and in male. Used to study several diseases, including amphetamine abuse; cocaine abuse; and nicotine dependence. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Parkinsonism; artery disease (multiple); and obesity. Is an ortholog of human TH (tyrosine hydroxylase).

Gimap1

Homo sapiens

This gene encodes a protein belonging to the GTP-binding superfamily and to the immuno-associated nucleotide (IAN) subfamily of nucleotide-binding proteins. In humans, the IAN subfamily genes are located in a cluster at 7q36.1. This gene is thought to be involved in the differentiation of T helper (Th) cells of the Th1 lineage, and the related mouse gene has been shown to be critical for the development of mature B and T lymphocytes. Read-through transcription exists between this gene and the downstream GIMAP5 (GTPase, IMAP family member 5) gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]

Tbx21

Homo sapiens

This gene is a member of a phylogenetically conserved family of genes that share a common DNA-binding domain, the T-box. T-box genes encode transcription factors involved in the regulation of developmental processes. This gene is the human ortholog of mouse Tbx21/Tbet gene. Studies in mouse show that Tbx21 protein is a Th1 cell-specific transcription factor that controls the expression of the hallmark Th1 cytokine, interferon-gamma (IFNG). Expression of the human ortholog also correlates with IFNG expression in Th1 and natural killer cells, suggesting a role for this gene in initiating Th1 lineage development from naive Th precursor cells.

Th

Rattus norvegicus

Enables several functions, including cation binding activity; oxygen binding activity; and tyrosine 3-monooxygenase activity. Involved in several processes, including aminergic neurotransmitter loading into synaptic vesicle; carboxylic acid metabolic process; and cellular response to nicotine. Located in several cellular components, including cytoplasmic vesicle; perikaryon; and terminal bouton. Used to study Parkinson's disease. Biomarker of several diseases, including brain disease (multiple); hyperprolactinemia; polycystic ovary syndrome; portal hypertension; and uremia. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Parkinson's disease; Parkinsonism; hypertension; and obesity. Orthologous to human TH (tyrosine hydroxylase); PARTICIPATES IN aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase deficiency pathway; catecholamine biosynthetic pathway; dopamine biosynthetic pathway; INTERACTS WITH (+)-catechin; (+)-sesamin; (+)-taxifolin.

Il18

Homo sapiens

The protein encoded by this gene is a proinflammatory cytokine of the IL-1 family that is constitutively found as a precursor within the cytoplasm of a variety of cells including macrophages and keratinocytes. The inactive IL-18 precursor is processed to its active form by caspase-1, and is capable of stimulating interferon gamma production, and of regulating both T helper (Th) 1 and Th2 responses. This cytokine has been implicated in the injury of different organs, and in potentially fatal conditions characterized by a cytokine storm. In humans, IL-18 gene is located on chromosome 11. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Aug 2020]
