Facts about Interferon regulatory factor 9.
IRF9/ISGF3G associates with the phosphorylated STAT1:STAT2 dimer to form a complex termed ISGF3 transcription factor, that enters the nucleus. ISGF3 binds to the IFN stimulated response element (ISRE) to trigger the transcription of interferon stimulated genes, which drive the cell in an antiviral state.
