background

Interleukin 12 (IL-12) is a pleiotropic cytokine that plays an essential role in Th1-type immune response against cancer, a condition where cells in a particular part of the body grow and reproduce uncontrollably.

molecular weight

The protein has a predicted MW of 22.80 kDa(IL-12A)&35.79 kDa(IL-12B). Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 25-30 kDa(IL-12A)&45-55 kDa(IL-12B) based on Tris-Bis PAGE result.

Function
Heterodimerizes with IL12B to form the IL-12 cytokine or with EBI3/IL27B to form the IL-35 cytokine. IL-12 is primarily produced by professional antigen-presenting cells (APCs) such as B-cells and dendritic cells (DCs) as well as macrophages and granulocytes and regulates T-cell and natural killer-cell responses, induces the production of interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma), favors the differentiation of T-helper 1 (Th1) cells and is an important link between innate resistance and adaptive immunity (PubMed:8766560). Mechanistically, exerts its biological effects through a receptor composed of IL12R1 and IL12R2 subunits. Binding to the receptor results in the rapid tyrosine phosphorylation of a number of cellular substrates including the JAK family kinases TYK2 and JAK2. In turn, recruited STAT4 gets phosphorylated and translocates to the nucleus where it regulates cytokine/growth factor responsive genes (By similarity). As part of IL-35, plays essential roles in maintaining the immune homeostasis of the liver microenvironment and functions also as an immune-suppressive cytokine (PubMed:18033300, PubMed:30197594). Mediates biological events through unconventional receptors composed of IL12RB2 and gp130/IL6ST heterodimers or homodimers. Signaling requires the transcription factors STAT1 and STAT4, which form a unique heterodimer that binds to distinct DNA sites (By similarity).

Secreted .
Structure
Heterodimer with IL12B; disulfide-linked (PubMed:1350290). This heterodimer is known as interleukin IL-12 (PubMed:1350290). Heterodimer with EBI3/IL27B; not disulfide-linked (By similarity). This heterodimer is known as interleukin IL-35 (By similarity). Interacts with NBR1; this interaction promotes IL-12 secretion (PubMed:34374750).
