Summary
Enables cytokine activity and interleukin-3 receptor binding activity. Involved in several processes, including hemopoiesis; positive regulation of cell population proliferation; and regulation of cell growth. Located in extracellular space. Used to study osteosarcoma. Biomarker of prostatic hypertrophy and pyelonephritis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Graves' disease; asthma; and rheumatoid arthritis. Orthologous to human IL3 (interleukin 3).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
