guanylate binding protein 1, interferon-inducible

Symbol

GBP1 (may also be known as: None)

Organism

Human

Description

Guanylate binding protein expression is induced by interferon. Guanylate binding proteins are characterized by their ability to specifically bind guanine nucleotides (GMP, GDP, and GTP) and are distinguished from the GTP-binding proteins by the presence of 2 binding motifs rather than 3.
