Interleukin 12 receptor beta 1 is a subunit of the interleukin 12 receptor. IL12RB1 is its human gene. IL12RB1 is also known as CD212 (cluster of differentiation 212).The protein encoded by this gene is a type I transmembrane protein that belongs to the hemopoietin receptor superfamily. This protein binds to interleukine 12 (IL12) with a low affinity and is thought to be a part of IL12 receptor complex.
