Alternate Names:  IL-35/EBI3, IL-27 EBI3 subunit, IL-35 EBI3 subunit

Accession Number: O35228
Description:  Epstein-Barr virus induced gene 3 (EBI3) is a secreted glycoprotein belonging to the hematopoietin receptor family related to the p40 subunit of interleukin 12 (IL-12).  EBI3 expression is induced in B-lymphocytes in response to Epstein-Barr virus infection.  EBI3 forms heterodimers with p28 to form interleukin 27 (IL-27), and with p35 to form interleukin 35 (IL-35).  Both IL-27 and IL-35 have anti-inflammatory and regulatory activity.
