FUNCTION

Tyrosine kinase of the non-receptor type involved in numerous cytokines and interferons signaling, which regulates cell growth, development, cell migration, innate and adaptive immunity Plays both structural and catalytic roles in numerous interleukins and interferons (IFN-alpha/beta) signaling 6. Associates with heterodimeric cytokine receptor complexes and activates STAT family members including STAT1, STAT3, STAT4 or STAT6. The heterodimeric cytokine receptor complexes are composed of a TYK2-associated receptor chain (IFNAR1, IL12RB1, IL10RB or IL13RA1), and a second receptor chain associated either with JAK1 or JAK2 9, 10, 11, 12. In response to cytokine-binding to receptors, phosphorylates and activates receptors (IFNAR1, IL12RB1, IL10RB or IL13RA1), creating docking sites for STAT members . In turn, recruited STATs are phosphorylated by TYK2 (or JAK1/JAK2 on the second receptor chain), form homo- and heterodimers, translocate to the nucleus, and regulate cytokine/growth factor responsive genes . Negatively regulates STAT3 activity by promototing phosphorylation at a specific tyrosine that differs from the site used for signaling
