IFITM2,also named as 1-8D,belongs to the CD225 family. It is an IFN-induced antiviral protein that mediates cellular innate immunity to at least three major human pathogens,namely influenza A H1N1 virus,West Nile virus (WNV),and dengue virus (WNV),by inhibiting the early step(s) of replication. IFITM2 induces cell cycle arrest and mediates apoptosis by caspase activation and in p53-independent manner. It is overexpressed in colon carcinoma. IFITM2 is a novel pro-apoptotic gene that will provide new insights into the regulated cellular pathways to death. This antibody is specific to IFTIM2.
