Interleukin 24 (IL-24) is cytokine, member of Interleukin 10 family. It forms an IL-20 subfamily with IL-19, IL-20, IL-22 because all these interleukins use the common class II cytokine receptor subunits and have similarities in biological functions <ref name="Rutz">PMID:25421700</ref>. IL-24 signals via two heterodimeric receptor complexes IL-22R1/IL-20R2 and IL-20R1/IL-20R2 and activates the STAT3 and STAT1 signaling (fig.1) <ref name="Dumoutier">PMID:11564763</ref><ref name="Wang">PMID:15667561</ref>. | Interleukin 24 (IL-24) is cytokine, member of Interleukin 10 family.

Some studies suggest anti-cancer activities that increased the interest in this molecule. |
One of the stable variants (IL-24B) was crystallized, its structure solved at 1.3 Å resolution and deposited to PDB under the code 6gg1. This structure together with the recently published crystal structure of the ternary complex of IL-24 fused to IL-22R1 and co-expressed with IL-20R2 (PDB ID [[6df3]], [13]) allowed us to analyze the role of the mutated amino acid residues protein stability, flexibility, and binding to the cognate receptors (fig.2). Based on the analysis, we expressed a series of variants back engineered from the PROSS designed variant by changing the critical residues back to their wild types. We revealed that re-introduction of a single IL-24 wild type residue (T198) to the patch interacting with receptors 1 restored 80 % of the binding affinity and signaling capacity accompanied by an acceptable drop in the protein stability by 9°C. | One of the stable variants (IL-24B) was crystallized, its structure solved at 1.3 Å resolution and deposited to PDB under the code 6gg1.
