Names: Interferon (IFN) type-IV family
Function: IFN-upsilon (IFNU), the type IV IFN, is found in jawed vertebrates
 ranging from cartilaginous fish to primitive mammals. It differs from type I,
 II, and III IFNs in consideration of sequence feature, gene locus, phylogeny,
 and receptor complex. IFN-upsilon proteins in vertebrates were reported to
 contain conserved sequence, CXXXXX(W/L) at N-terminus, being different from
 other known three types of IFNs.
