NCBI Summary for IL-12

This gene encodes a subunit of a cytokine that acts on T and natural killer cells, and has a broad array of biological activities. The cytokine is a disulfide-linked heterodimer composed of the 35-kD subunit encoded by this gene, and a 40-kD subunit that is a member of the cytokine receptor family. This cytokine is required for the T-cell-independent induction of interferon (IFN)-gamma, and is important for the differentiation of both Th1 and Th2 cells. The responses of lymphocytes to this cytokine are mediated by the activator of transcription protein STAT4. Nitric oxide synthase 2A (NOS2A/NOS2) is found to be required for the signaling process of this cytokine in innate immunity. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

UniProt Comments for IL-12

Function: Cytokine that can act as a growth factor for activated T and NK cells, enhance the lytic activity of NK/lymphokine-activated Killer cells, and stimulate the production of IFN-gamma by resting PBMC.

Subunit structure: Heterodimer with IL12B; disulfide-linked. The heterodimer is known as interleukin IL-12. Ref.8

Subcellular location: Secreted.

Induction: Down-regulated in response to enterovirus 71 (EV71) infection. Ref.7

Sequence similarities: Belongs to the IL-6 superfamily.

Sequence caution: The sequence AAA59937.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous initiation.
