===Interferon Alpha, Interferon Beta, and Interferon Receptors 1 & 2 ===

Since a PDB reference does not exist for interferon beta interacting with interferon receptors 1 or 2, and a multitude of files exist on <scene name='Multiple_sclerosis/Ifna/1'>Interferon-α</scene> interacting with the receptor, a comparison to interferon-α will be made prior to demonstrating the types of bonding that occur between the interferon and its receptor. To see more information regarding interferons, please visit the [[~~Interferon~~]] site.

Interferon alpha has a very similar structure to interferon beta.

Interferon alpha has a very similar structure to interferon beta. It, too, has many <scene name='Multiple_sclerosis/Ifna_labeled/1'>identifiable regions</scene> with two <scene name='Multiple_sclerosis/Ifna_disulfide_bonds/1'>disulfide bonds</scene>: one between the <scene name='Multiple_sclerosis/Ifna_disulfide_bondsn-e/1'>N-terminus and Helix E</scene>, and the other between <scene name='Multiple_sclerosis/Ifna_disulfide_bonds_ab-g/1'>Loop AB and Helix G</scene>.
