Mouse IFN-gamma R1 Antibody Pair Set

Matched antibody pair. Protein function: Receptor subunit for interferon gamma/INFG that plays crucial roles in antimicrobial, antiviral, and antitumor responses by activating effector immune cells and enhancing antigen presentation (, PubMed:20926559, PubMed:27286456). Associates with transmembrane accessory factor IFNGR2 to form a functional receptor (PubMed:2530582, PubMed:2532365, PubMed:2137461, PubMed:2531896, PubMed:2530216). Upon ligand binding, the intracellular domain of IFNGR1 opens out to allow association of downstream signaling components JAK1 and JAK2. In turn, activated JAK1 phosphorylates IFNGR1 to form a docking site for STAT1. Subsequent phosphorylation of STAT1 leads to its dimerization, translocation to the nucleus, and stimulation of target gene transcription (PubMed:19889125). STAT3 can also be activated in a similar manner although activation seems weaker (PubMed:15284232). IFNGR1 intracellular domain phosphorylation also provides a docking site for SOCS1 that regulates the JAK-STAT pathway by competing with STAT1 binding to IFNGR1 (PubMed:15522878).
