 Interferon type III

The type III interferon group consists of four IFN-λ (lambda) molecules called IFN-λ1, IFN-λ2, IFN-λ3 (also known as IL29, IL28A and IL28B respectively), and IFN-λ4.These interferons signal through a receptor complex consisting of IL10RB (also called IL10R2 or CRF2-4) and IFNLR1 (formerly called IL28RA , CRF2-12).
