A new study, 'The stability of the ternary interferon-receptor complex rather than the affinity to the individual subunits dictates differential biological activities,' is now available. According to a study from Rehovot, Israel, "Type I interferons (IFNs) signal for their diverse biological effects by binding a common receptor on target cells, composed of the two transmembrane IFNAR1 and IFNAR2 proteins. We have previously differentially enhanced the antiproliferative activity of IFN by increasing the weak binding affinity of IFN to IFNAR1."
"In this study, we further explored the affinity interdependencies between the two receptor subunits and the role of ...
