This gene (IFNGR2) encodes the non-ligand-binding beta chain of the gamma interferon receptor. Human interferon-gamma receptor is a heterodimer of IFNGR1 and IFNGR2. Defects in IFNGR2 are a cause of mendelian susceptibility to mycobacterial disease (MSMD), also known as familial disseminated atypical mycobacterial infection. MSMD is a genetically heterogeneous disease with autosomal recessive, autosomal dominant or X-linked inheritance. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
A study in rats demonstrated that the IFNGR2 is an orthologous gene associated with inflammatory processes in radiation-induced lung injury [Shi et al. DOI:10.17305/bb.2024.10357]. In human sepsis, single-cell RNA sequencing analysis found the IFNGR2 was expressed at higher levels in CHIT1+ neutrophils from non-survivors, where it functions as a pro-inflammatory receptor [Li et al. DOI:10.1038/s41598-025-99619-z].
