Common Gamma Chain Receptor Subunit
- Molecular classification
- Receptor, Cytokine Receptor, Type I cytokine receptor
01
Overview
The common gamma chain receptor subunit is a critical component of several interleukin receptors, acting as a shared signaling subunit for IL-2, IL-4, IL-7, IL-9, IL-15, and IL-21. It is essential for lymphocyte development and function, particularly T cell, B cell, and NK cell maturation. Mutations in the IL2RG gene result in X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency (X-SCID).
