gamma chain

In some beta-thalassemias and related conditions, gamma chain production continues into adulthood.

The mutation leads to an absent or abnormally functioning common gamma chain.

This will result in a normal functioning gamma chain protein of the interleukin receptor.

It is caused by a mutation in the gene for the cytokine receptor common gamma chain.

The common gamma chain partners with other proteins to direct blood-forming cells to form lymphocytes (a type of white blood cell).

Without the common gamma chain, important chemical signals are not relayed to the nucleus and lymphocytes cannot develop normally.

Their N-terminal regions may be involved in interactions with the gamma chain (EF-1gamma).

The gamma chains are gradually replaced by β chains as the infant grows.

The alpha chain itself does not contact either beta or gamma chain of the IL-2R.

Hemoglobin Barts consists of four gamma chains.

This gene encodes the gamma chain isoform laminin, gamma 3.

Due to the fact that the common gamma chain is absent or abnormal, this downstream pathway is inhibited.

Similarly the gamma chain complexes with another tyrosine kinase called JAK3.

JAK3 is required for signaling of the type I receptors that use the common gamma chain (γc).

Fibrinogen gamma chain, also known as FGG, is a human gene found on Chromosome 4.

These changes lead to the production of a nonfunctional version of the common gamma chain protein or no production of protein.

The gamma 3 chain is most similar to the gamma 1 chain, and contains all the 6 domains expected of the gamma chain.

T-cell surface glycoprotein CD3 gamma chain is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CD3G gene.

The gene that encodes the common gamma chain in these interleukins is mutated in X-SCID.

The protein is expressed as a single chain precursor which is proteolytically cleaved into a trimer of alpha, beta, and gamma chains prior to secretion.

Lymphocytes expressing the common gamma chain can form functional receptors for these cytokine proteins, which transmit signals from one cell to another and direct programs of cellular differentiation.

The IgE-receptor, a tetramer composed of an alpha, beta, and 2 disulfide-linked gamma chains, is found on the surface of mast cells and basophils.

Mutations in the common gamma chain (γc) result in X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency (X-SCID).

IL-7 binds to the IL-7 receptor, a heterodimer consisting of Interleukin-7 receptor alpha and common gamma chain receptor.

Sodium/potassium-transporting ATPase gamma chain is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the FXYD2 gene.
