Interferon gamma receptor 2 (IFNGR2)

Target
IFNGR2
Molecular classification
Type II cytokine receptor family, Receptor
01

Overview

Interferon gamma receptor 2 (IFNGR2) is a critical component of the interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) receptor complex. It is the non-ligand-binding beta chain and plays an essential role in immune signaling and host defense by enabling signal transduction through the JAK/STAT pathway. Mutations in IFNGR2 cause autosomal recessive Mendelian susceptibility to mycobacterial disease (MSMD).
