IFI16 (γ-interferon-inducible protein 16) belongs to the pyrin superfamily and HIN-200 family (hematopoietic interferon-inducible nuclear antigens with 200 amino acid repeat). This gene is expressed at high levels in endothelial cells and squamous stratified epithelia. It is found in the nuclei of lymphocytes in the spleen, thymus, lymph nodes, palatine tonsil and non-lymphoid tissues including trachea, gastrointestinal tract, skin and testis. IFI16 has a DNA binding domain, a transcriptional regulatory domain, DAPIN (domain in apoptosis and interferon response) domain associated with interferon (IFN) response and BRCA1 binding domain (breast cancer tumor suppressor protein). This gene is located on human chromosome 1q23.
This gene encodes a member of the HIN-200 (hematopoietic interferon-inducible nuclear antigens with 200 amino acid repeats) family of cytokines. The encoded protein contains domains involved in DNA binding, transcriptional regulation, and protein-protein interactions. The protein localizes to the nucleoplasm and nucleoli, and interacts with p53 and retinoblastoma-1. It modulates p53 function, and inhibits cell growth in the Ras/Raf signaling pathway.

Dynamically shifting protein-protein interactions (PPIs) regulate cellular responses to viruses and the resulting immune signaling. Here, we use thermal proximity coaggregation (TPCA) mass spectrometry to characterize the on-off behavior of PPIs during infection with herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1), a
The interferon inducible protein 16 (IFI16) is a prominent sensor of nuclear pathogenic DNA, initiating innate immune signaling and suppressing viral transcription. However, little is known about mechanisms that initiate IFI16 antiviral functions or its regulation within the host DNA-filled
