IFN-gamma R2 Protein, Human (CHO)
Based on 1 Customer Validation
IFN-gamma R2, one of the subunit of IFN-gamma receptor, is a receptor for IFN-gamma. IFN-gamma R2 is the signal-transducing chain of the IFN-gamma receptor. IFN-gamma R2 forms the functional receptor with IFN-gamma R1. Upon binding with IFN-gamma, IFN-gamma R2 and IFN-gamma R1 oligomerize and transphosphorylate. Then, the downstream signaling components JAK1 and JAK2 are phosphorylated and activated, and STAT1 is phosphorylated. Phosphorylated STAT1 translocates to the nucleus, where it regulates the expression of IFN-responsive genes (e.g. CD54). IFN-gamma R2 Protein, Human (CHO) is a recombinant human IFN-gamma R2 (S28-Q247) without any tag, which is produced in CHO cells.

Description
IFN-gamma R2, one of the subunit of IFN-gamma receptor, is a receptor for IFN-gamma. IFN-gamma R2 is the signal-transducing chain of the IFN-gamma receptor. IFN-gamma R2 forms the functional receptor with IFN-gamma R1. Upon binding with IFN-gamma, IFN-gamma R2 and IFN-gamma R1 oligomerize and transphosphorylate[1]. Then, the downstream signaling components JAK1 and JAK2 are phosphorylated and activated, and STAT1 is phosphorylated. Phosphorylated STAT1 translocates to the nucleus, where it regulates the expression of IFN-responsive genes (e.g. CD54)[2]. IFN-gamma R2 Protein, Human (CHO) is a recombinant human IFN-gamma R2 (S28-Q247) without any tag, which is produced in CHO cells.
Background
IFN-gamma R2, one of the subunit of IFN-gamma receptor, is a receptor for IFN-gamma. IFN-gamma R2. IFN-gamma R2 is highly expressed on myeloid cells, moderately on B cells and low on T cells, and the expression is regulated by the state of cellular differentiation or activation[2].
IFN-gamma R2 can associate with IFN-gamma R1 to form a functional receptor. Upon binding with IFN-gamma, IFN-gamma R2 and IFN-gamma R1 oligomerize and transphosphorylate[1]. Then, JAK1 and JAK2 are phosphorylated and activated, creating a binding site for STAT1. STAT1 is recruited to the receptor complex and leads to the phosphorylation. Phosphorylated STAT1 translocates to the nucleus, where it regulates the expression of IFN-responsive genes (e.g. CD54). IFN-gamma R2 is important for innating immune defense against mycobacterial infections. Defects in IFN-gamma R2 causes mendelian susceptibility to mycobacterial disease (MSMD)[2].
Human IFN-gamma R2 consists of extracellular domain (S28-Q247), helical domain (V248-F268), and cytoplasmic domain (L269-L337).
IFN-gamma R2 plays a critical role in antimicrobial, and immune responses[2].
