Human type I interferons comprise a vast and growing group of IFN proteins.
All type I IFNs bind to a specific cell surface receptor complex known as the IFN-? receptor ( IFNAR ) that consists of IFNAR1 and IFNAR2 chains.
Homologous molecules to type I IFNs are found in many species, including most mammals, and some have been identified in birds, reptiles, amphibians and fish species. [ 1 ]
