NCIt definition : Human IL12RB1 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 19p13.1 and is approximately
74 kb in length. This allele, which encodes interleukin-12 receptor beta-1 chain protein,
is involved in IL12 signal transduction. Heritable defects in the IL12RB1 gene are
a cause of susceptibility to mycobacterial disease.;
NCIt note : The IL12RB1 gene produces two RNA transcript variants via alternative splicing which,
in turn, encode two distinct protein isoforms.;
