Interferon gamma Receptor

**Definition:** A heterodimeric receptor composed of two subunits IFNGR1 and IFNGR2. Activated IFNGR1 subunit is believed to form a docking site for SIGNAL TRANSDUCER AND ACTIVATOR OF TRANSCRIPTION 1 (STAT1). IFNGR2 associates with IFNGR1 to form a receptor for the cytokine interferon gamma (IFNG).
