Gene information for IL36B (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID27177
Official gene symbolIL36B
Full nameinterleukin 1 family, member 8 (eta)
Aliases,FIL1,FIL1-(ETA),FIL1H,FILI-(ETA),IL-1F8,IL-1H2,IL1-ETA,IL1F8,IL1H2,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene is a member of the interleukin 1 cytokine family. Protein structure modeling indicated that this cytokine may contain a 12-stranded beta-trefoil structure that is conserved between IL1A (IL-A alpha) and IL1B (IL-1 beta). This gene and eight other interleukin 1 family genes form a cytokine gene cluster on chromosome 2. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been reported.
