The human IL-12 R subunit is a member of the cytokine receptor superfamily. The IL-12 R beta (IL-12Rβ) gene is located on chromosome 19p13 and has 17 exons. The receptor is composed of two subunits—IL-12Rβ1 and IL-12Rβ2—and is a member of the gp130 cytokine receptor superfamily. IL-12R are located mainly on T cells and NK cells, and stimulate TH1 and NK cell growth, while inhibiting TH2 cell responses. IL-12Rβ1 encodes the β1 chain common to the receptors for IL-12 and IL-23. Human IL-12Rβ1 is an autosomal gene that is essential for mycobacterial disease resistance and T cell differentiation. Mutations in the IL-12Rβ1 gene accounts for 38% of cases of MSMD. IL12Rβ1 is a cell surface receptor that binds the IL12p40 domain of IL12/IL23, and cooperates with co-receptors IL12Rβ2 or IL23R to initiate intracellular STAT signaling.
