InnateDB Annotation
Summary
Srebf2 is a key transcriptional regulator of sterol biosynthesis in lipid metabolism, and Srebp2 protein levels in macrophages are negatively regulated by type I interferon signalling during viral infection.
Mir342 is involved in a novel post-transcriptional viral defence mechanism in IFN-activated macrophages by directly targeting Srebf2, Idi1, Dhcr7 and Sc4mol of the sterol pathway.
InnateDB Annotation from Orthologs
Summary
[Homo sapiens] SREBF2 is a key transcriptional regulator of sterol biosynthesis in lipid metabolism, and SREBP2 protein levels in macrophages are negatively regulated by type I interferon signalling during viral infection. (Demonstrated in murine model)
