Antigen Details
- Structure
- 328 amino acids with a predicted molecular weight of 40 kD.
- Distribution
- Secreted.
- Function
- p40 homodimer functions as a proinflammatory protein that enhances leukocyte accumulation in the skin, blunt Th1 immunity to Plasmodium berghei, and provides protective immunity toward mycobacterial infection. In addition, p40 homodimer induces macrophage chemotaxis independent of IL-12. Also, IL-12 p40 homodimer (p402) induces the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in microglia.
- Interaction
- Heterodimer with IL12A and IL23A.
- Ligand/Receptor
- IL-12Rβ1.
- Biology Area
- Cell Adhesion, Cell Biology, Immunology, Signal Transduction
- Molecular Family
- Cytokines/Chemokines
