Function

Component of the receptor for type I interferons, including interferons alpha, IFNB1 and IFNW1 (PubMed:2153461, PubMed:7665574, PubMed:10049744, PubMed:14532120, PubMed:15337770, PubMed:21854986). Functions in general as heterodimer with IFNAR2 (PubMed:7665574, PubMed:10049744, PubMed:21854986). Type I interferon binding activates the JAK-STAT signaling cascade, and triggers tyrosine phosphorylation of a number of proteins including JAKs, TYK2, STAT proteins and the IFNR alpha- and beta-subunits themselves (PubMed:7665574, PubMed:21854986, PubMed:32972995). Can form an active IFNB1 receptor by itself and activate a signaling cascade that does not involve activation of the JAK-STAT pathway (By similarity).

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the type II cytokine receptor family.

Post-translational modifications

Ubiquitinated, leading to its internalization and degradation (PubMed:14532120, PubMed:15337770). Polyubiquitinated via 'Lys-48'-linked and 'Lys-63'-linked ubiquitin chains, leading to receptor internalization and lysosomal degradation (PubMed:18056411). The 'Lys-63'-linked ubiquitin chains are cleaved off by the BRISC complex (PubMed:24075985).

Activity summary

Interferon alpha/beta receptor 1 also known as IFNAR1 is an important component of the interferon receptor complex which includes the interferon beta receptor (IFNBR) and the broader class of interferon receptors. IFNAR1 is a transmembrane protein with a molecular mass of approximately 100 kDa. It shows expression in various tissues but predominantly in cells of the immune system. This expression pattern enables IFNAR1 to play a central role in mediating responses to interferon alpha and beta which are cytokines important in the immune response.

Biological function summary

IFNAR1 partners with interferon alpha receptor 2 (IFNAR2) to form a functional receptor complex. This complex binds interferons alpha and beta triggering signal transduction cascades vital for antiviral defense. Through this interaction IFNAR1 facilitates cellular immune responses including the activation of antiviral genes and modulation of cell proliferation. IFNAR1's role extends beyond immediate immune response influencing processes like cell differentiation and apoptosis.

Pathways

IFNAR1 is a participant in the JAK-STAT signaling pathway a significant pathway for transmitting cytokine signals. Upon interferon binding it activates the associated Janus kinases (JAKs) which in turn phosphorylate signal transducers and activators of transcription (STATs) specifically STAT1 and STAT2. This chain of events results in the transcription of interferon-stimulated genes that provide antiviral defenses and promote immune regulation. IFNAR1's engagement in these pathways makes it an integral part of immune system communication.

Associated diseases and disorders

IFNAR1 associates strongly with autoimmune diseases and viral infections. In lupus an autoimmune disorder dysregulation in interferon signaling involving IFNAR1 contributes to disease progression. Moreover in viral infections like hepatitis C the response of IFNAR1 to interferon therapies can influence treatment outcomes. Understanding these connections facilitates therapeutic strategies that target interferon pathways for improved disease management.
