Interferon gamma receptor 2 (IFNGR2)

Associates with IFNGR1 to form a receptor for the cytokine interferon gamma (IFNG) (PubMed:8124716, PubMed:7673114,PubMed:7615558). Ligand binding stimulates activation of the JAK/STAT signaling pathway (PubMed:8124716, PubMed:7673114, PubMed:15356148).

Required for signal transduction in contrast to other receptor subunit responsible for ligand binding (PubMed:7673114). .
