More information in Books or onNLM PubMed
Definition: An interleukin receptor subunit that was originally discovered as a component of the INTERLEUKIN 2 RECEPTOR. It was subsequently found to be a component of several other receptors including the INTERLEUKIN 4 RECEPTOR, the INTERLEUKIN 7 RECEPTOR, the INTERLEUKIN-9 RECEPTOR, the INTERLEUKIN-15 RECEPTOR, and the INTERLEUKIN-21 RECEPTOR. Mutations in the gene for the interleukin receptor common gamma chain have been associated with X-LINKED COMBINED IMMUNODEFICIENCY DISEASES.      Other names gamma-Chain Protein, Common; Interleukin Receptor Common gamma Chain; Interleukin 7 Receptor gamma Subunit; Interleukin 7 Receptor gamma Chain; Interleukin 4 Receptor gamma Subunit; Interleukin 4 Receptor gamma Chain; Interleukin 21 Receptor gamma Subunit; Interleukin 21 Receptor gamma Chain; Interleukin 2 Receptor gamma Subunit; Interleukin 2 Receptor gamma Chain; Interleukin 15 Receptor gamma Subunit; Interleukin 15 Receptor gamma Chain; Common gamma Chain Protein; Antigen, CD132; Interleukin-7 Receptor gamma Chain; Interleukin-4 Receptor gamma Chain; Interleukin-21 Receptor gamma Chain; Interleukin-2 Receptor gamma Chain; Interleukin-15 Receptor gamma Chain; Interleukin Receptor Common gamma-Chain
