About Il12b

Chromosome 11: 44,290,890-44,304,860 forward strand.GRCm39:CM001004.3

This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 268 orthologues and is associated with 19 phenotypes. Biased expression in thymus adult (RPKM 1.), spleen adult (RPKM .3) and 4 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes the beta subunit p40 of the Interleukin 12 (IL-12) family of cytokines. Members of the IL-12 family form heterodimers consisting of heavy and light subunits linked by disulfide bonds. The product of this gene, p40, is a subunit of interleukins IL-12 and IL-23.
