Synthesized peptide derived from part region of human protein
This gene encodes the anti-inflammatory protein glucocorticoid (GC)-induced leucine zipper. Expression of this gene stimulated by glucocorticoids and interleukin 10 and it appears to play a key role in the anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects of this steroid. This protein has also been shown to inhibit pro-inflammatory molecules including nuclear factor kappaB. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016],
