STAT1
STAT1 (signal transducer and activator of transcription 1), chromosome 2 gene encoding an interferon-signaling transcription factor; gain-of-function mutations cause chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis, loss-of-function mutations cause mycobacterial and viral susceptibility.
STAT2
STAT2 (signal transducer and activator of transcription 2), human gene MIM 600556 on chromosome 12, a transcription factor of the ISGF3 complex with STAT1 and IRF9, mediating type I and III interferon antiviral immunity; loss-of-function causes viral susceptibility, R148 variants cause type I interferonopathy.
STAT3
STAT3 (signal transducer and activator of transcription 3, APRF) is a chromosome 17q21.1 transcription factor activated by JAK-mediated Y705 phosphorylation; central to immunity and a validated but clinically unapproved cancer drug target.
STAT4
STAT4 (signal transducer and activator of transcription 4, gene ID 6775, 2q32.2-q32.3) is a STAT-family transcription factor activated mainly by IL-12, IL-23, and IL-35, driving Th1 differentiation via T-bet; variants link it to autoimmunity and disabling pansclerotic morphea.
STAT5A
STAT5A (signal transducer and activator of transcription 5A, also MGF) is a STAT-family transcription factor gene at 17q21.2, activated by JAK2 at Tyr-694, essential for prolactin-driven mammary development and implicated in leukemia.
STAT5B
STAT5B (signal transducer and activator of transcription 5B, HGNC:11367) is a transcription factor gene on 17q21.2 mediating growth hormone and cytokine signaling; germline loss-of-function causes growth hormone insensitivity with immunodeficiency, somatic gain-of-function causes leukemia and eosinophilia.
STAT6
STAT6 (signal transducer and activator of transcription 6, 12q13.3) is a STAT-family transcription factor mediating IL-4/IL-13 signaling, Th2 immunity, and IgE class switching; germline gain-of-function variants cause severe inherited allergic disease.
