Background
The IFN-alpha proteins are produced by leukocytes. They are mainly involved in innate immune response against viral infection. They come in 14 subtypes that are called IFNA1, IFNA2, IFNA4, IFNA5, IFNA6, IFNA7, IFNA8, IFNA10, IFNA13, IFNA14, IFNA16, IFNA17, IFNA21. These genes for these IFN-alpha molecules are found together in a cluster on chromosome 9. IFN-alpha is also made synthetically as medication. Synonyms: Monoclonal IFN alpha antibody, Anti-IFN alpha antibody, Interferon alpha antibody, IFNa antibody, IFN-a antibody.
