Disease[INGR2_HUMAN] Autosomal recessive mendelian susceptibility to mycobacterial diseases due to partial IFNgammaR2 deficiency;Autosomal dominant mendelian susceptibility to mycobacterial diseases due to partial IFNgammaR2 deficiency;Mendelian susceptibility to mycobacterial diseases due to complete IFNgammaR2 deficiency. The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Function[INGR2_HUMAN] 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).[1] [2] [3] [4] Publication Abstract from PubMedInterferon-gamma receptor 2 is a cell-surface receptor that is required for interferon-gamma signalling and therefore plays a critical immunoregulatory role in innate and adaptive immunity against viral and also bacterial and protozoal infections. A crystal structure of the extracellular part of human interferon-gamma receptor 2 (IFNgammaR2) was solved by molecular replacement at 1.8 A resolution. Similar to other class 2 receptors, IFNgammaR2 has two fibronectin type III domains. The characteristic structural features of IFNgammaR2 are concentrated in its N-terminal domain: an extensive pi-cation motif of stacked residues KWRWRH, a NAG-W-NAG sandwich (where NAG stands for N-acetyl-D-glucosamine) and finally a helix formed by residues 78-85, which is unique among class 2 receptors. Mass spectrometry and mutational analyses showed the importance of N-linked glycosylation to the stability of the protein and confirmed the presence of two disulfide bonds. Structure-based bioinformatic analysis revealed independent evolutionary behaviour of both receptor domains and, together with multiple sequence alignment, identified putative binding sites for interferon-gamma and receptor 1, the ligands of IFNgammaR2. Crystal structure of human interferon-gamma receptor 2 reveals the structural basis for receptor specificity.,Mikulecky P, Zahradnik J, Kolenko P, Cerny J, Charnavets T, Kolarova L, Necasova I, Pham PN, Schneider B Acta Crystallogr D Struct Biol. 2016 Sep;72(Pt 9):1017-25. doi:, 10.1107/S2059798316012237.
