CD132 Gene ID | 16186 |
CD132 Official Full Name | interleukin 2 receptor, gamma chain |
CD132 Alias | IL2RG, Common γ |
CD132 Cellular Expression | T; B; NK; Dendritic; Granulocyte; Macrophage; monocytes |
CD132 Ligand/Receptor/Association | |
CD132 Function | Forms complexes with other cell surface proteins including CD25, CD122, CD124, CD127 and others. Complexes with other cell surface proteins to form receptors for the cytokines IL2, IL4, IL7, IL9, and IL15. |
CD132 Summary | This gene encodes a transmembrane protein that is a common subunit of several interleukin receptor complexes. These receptors are comprised of alpha and beta subunits in addition to this gamma subunit. Signalling through this pathway in important in immune cell differentiation and function. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, May 2015] |
