context_page_description: Immunity Related Guanosine Triphosphatases or IRGs are proteins activated as part of an early immune response. IRGs have been described in various mammals but are most well characterized in mice. IRG activation in most cases is induced by an immune response and leads to clearance of certain pathogens.
