Description
Product Characteristics: The function of IER5 protein is not widely studied, and is yet to be elucidated fully.
Target Information: This gene encodes a protein that is similar to other immediate early response proteins. In the mouse, a similar gene may play an important role in mediating the cellular response to mitogenic signals. Studies in rats found the expression of a similar gene to be increased after waking and sleep deprivation. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
