Template:PBB Interferon regulatory factor 4 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the IRF4 gene,[1][2][3] also known as MUM1. In melanocytic cells the IRF4 gene may be regulated by MITF.[4] IRF4 is a transcription factor that has been implicated in acute leukemia.[5] This gene is strongly associated with pigmentation: sensitivity of skin to sun exposure, freckles, blue eyes, and brown hair color (PMID: 24267888).

Interactions

IRF4 has been shown to interact with STAT6,[6] NFATC2,[7] BCL6[6] and SPI1.[8][9]
