Anti-Gbp1

Interferon-induced guanylate-binding protein 1 in humans is encoded by the GBP1 gene belongs to the dynamin superfamily of large GTPases and induced by interferons. GBP1 hydrolyzes GTP to GMP in two consecutive cleavage reactions and also exhibits antiviral activity against influenza virus. Diseases associated with GBP1 include pseudo pseudo hypoparathyroidism and aneurysmal bone cysts. It is widely expressed on central nervous system, mammary gland, skeletal muscle, skin, small intestine, stomach, etc. Protein function: Hydrolyzes GTP to GMP in 2 consecutive cleavage reactions. Exhibits antiviral activity against influenza virus. Promote oxidative killing and deliver antimicrobial peptides to autophagolysosomes, providing broad host protection against different pathogen classes. [The UniProt Consortium]
