Description
JAK 2 (Janus Activating Kinase 2) is one of a number of related tyrosine kinases involved in cytoplasmic signal transduction. In response to a variety of cytokine or related factors (e.g., interferon, interleukins), JAKs are activated via phosphorylation at 2 adjacent tyrosine residues as well as perhaps one or more serine residues. The activation of JAKs can lead to the phosphorylation of STAT (signal transducers and activators of transcription) proteins, which dimerize and translocate to the nucleus. Once translocated to the nucleus, the STAT proteins can modify transcription of numerous genes, including ISGs (interferon-stimulated genes). JAK 2 plays an essential role in Interferon-gamma signaling
