MACIR macrophage immunometabolism regulator

Gene ID: 90355, updated on 17-Jun-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: C5orf30

Summary

This gene, MACIR (previously known as C5orf30), has been associated with rheumatoid arthritis, functioning as a negative regulator of tissue damage and modulating the activity of synovial fibroblasts and macrophages. The encoded protein is highly conserved in vertebrate genomes but has no significant similarity to any other human protein. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2019]
