About Il12a

Chromosome 3: 68,597,977-68,605,880 forward strand.GRCm39:CM000996.3

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 234 orthologues and is associated with 14 phenotypes.

Summary

Enables interleukin-12 beta subunit binding activity. Contributes to cytokine activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including T-helper 1 cell activation; defense response to protozoan; and positive regulation of T cell activation. Located in cell surface; cytoplasm; and extracellular space. Part of interleukin-12 complex. Is expressed in brain; lung; small intestine; testis; and thymus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hepatitis C; hepatocellular carcinoma; and primary biliary cholangitis. Orthologous to human IL12A (interleukin 12A).
