Target Information

Target Symbol IL6R
Target Name Interleukin-6 receptor subunit alpha
UniProt ID P08887
Cellular Localization Secreted and Basolateral cell membrane.
Function Part of the receptor for interleukin 6. Binds to IL6 with low affinity, but does not transduce a signal. Signal activation necessitate an association with IL6ST. Activation may lead to the regulation of the immune response, acute-phase reactions and hematopoiesis.Low concentration of a soluble form of IL6 receptor acts as an agonist of IL6 activity.
Post-translational Modifications A short soluble form may also be released from the membrane by proteolysis.
Domain The two fibronectin type-III-like domains, contained in the N-terminal part, form together a cytokine-binding domain.The WSXWS motif appears to be necessary for proper protein folding and thereby efficient intracellular transport and cell-surface receptor binding.
Sequence Similarities Belongs to the type I cytokine receptor family. Type 3 subfamily. Contains 1 fibronectin type-III domain. Contains 1 Ig-like C2-type (immunoglobulin-like) domain.
