Post Translational Modifications | On IL12 binding, phosphorylated on C-terminal tyrosine residues by JAK2. Phosphorylation on Tyr-800 is required for STAT4 binding and activation, and for SOCS3 binding. |
Function | Receptor for interleukin-12. This subunit is the signaling component coupling to the JAK2/STAT4 pathway. Promotes the proliferation of T-cells as well as NK cells. Induces the promotion of T-cells towards the Th1 phenotype by strongly enhancing IFN-gamma production. |
