Interleukin 10 is a ternary complex that requires specific assembly for proper function. The IL-10 complex is composed of IL-10,IL-10R1,IL-10R2. The initial step is the formation of IL-10 and IL-10R1 generating a conformational change that is required for IL-10R2 to be able to associate and form the ternary complex <ref name="ref1">PMID:16982608</ref>. The completed complex activates the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JAK-STAT_signaling_pathway JAK/STAT signaling pathway].[[Image:IL10.png|left|thumb|'''Figure 2.
