Target intelligence / Profile preview

Interleukin 3 Receptor Beta Subunit (βc)

Target
βc
Molecular classification
Type I cytokine receptor family, Receptor subunit
01

Overview

The interleukin-3 receptor beta subunit (βc/CD131) is a critical component of the high-affinity receptor complex for interleukin-3 (IL-3), GM-CSF, and IL-5. It functions as a signal transduction subunit, activating intracellular kinases like JAK2 upon ligand engagement. Aberrant activation contributes to malignancies, making it a therapeutic target.
