IL10RB interleukin 10 receptor subunit beta

Gene ID: 3588, updated on 17-Sep-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: CRFB4; IBD25; CRF2-4; D21S58; D21S66; CDW210B; IL-10R2; IL-10RB

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the cytokine receptor family. It is an accessory chain essential for the active interleukin 10 receptor complex. Coexpression of this and IL10RA proteins has been shown to be required for IL10-induced signal transduction. This gene and three other interferon receptor genes, IFAR2, IFNAR1, and IFNGR2, form a class II cytokine receptor gene cluster located in a small region on chromosome 21.
