Isolation and characterization of the human interleukin-9 receptor gene.
To better understand the regulation of interleukin-9 (IL-9) receptor expression, we have isolated the genomic clone of the human IL-9 receptor based on its sequence homology with a human IL-9 receptor cDNA isolated from the human megakaryocyte cell line UT-7. The entire genomic structure has been determined. The human IL-9 receptor gene consists of 10 exons spread over approximately 13.7 kb of ...
متن کاملSevere combined imunodeficiency caused by defect of the common gamma chain of the interleukin 2 receptor
Results The mutation detected was a defect of the common gamma chain of the interleukin 2 receptor (IL2Rg). Even though genetic counseling advised otherwise the patient’s mother got pregnant during follow-up and as no compatible donor was found we chose to wait birth and verify compatibility. Genetic evaluation of the newborn revealed the absence of the IL2Rg gene defect in blood cord and a mat...
متن کاملIdentification of the functional interleukin-2 binding domain of the chicken common cytokine receptor gamma chain.
CD132 is the common gamma chain to a number of cytokine receptor complexes including that for IL-2. To identify the functional domain of chicken CD132 (chCD132), the cDNA of chCD132 was cloned, and a neutralizing monoclonal antibody, raised against a recombinant chCD132 protein, was identified by inhibition of IL-2-dependent proliferation of T cells. Flow cytometry analysis revealed that chCD13...
متن کاملStructure of the human interleukin-2 receptor gene.
The gene encoding the human interleukin-2 (IL-2) receptor consists of 8 exons spanning more than 25 kilobases on chromosome 10. Exons 2 and 4 were derived from a gene duplication event and unexpectedly also are homologous to the recognition domain of human complement factor B. Alternative messenger RNA (mRNA) splicing may delete exon 4 sequences, resulting in a mRNA that does not encode a funct...
متن کاملThe human interleukin-2 receptor.
Complementary DNAs corresponding to the human receptor for interleukin-2 (IL-2) have been molecularly cloned, sequenced, and expressed in both COS-1 and L cells. The human genome appears to contain a single structural gene for this receptor located on the short arm of chromosome 10 (band 14-15). However, when transcribed, at least two families of mRNAs are produced, which vary in length due to ...
