IL-11 R alpha, IL11R alpha, IL11RA, IL-11Ra, Il11ra2, NR1
Interleukin 11 receptor alpha (IL 11 R alpha, IL 11 R alpha 1) originally designated NR1 in mouse, is a 49 kDa type I transmembrane protein that is a member of the gp130 subfamily of the hematopoietic cytokine receptor family. IL-11 R alpha first binds IL 11 with low affinity, then forms a high affinity receptor when complexed with gp130 homodimers. IL 11 R alpha is also anti-apoptotic for colonic epithelia, and increased IL 11 signaling may be a factor in inflammation-associated gastrointestinal cancer development. The IL11/IL11RA/IL6ST complex may be involved in the control of proliferation and/or differentiation of skeletogenic progenitor or other mesenchymal cells. Essential for the normal development of craniofacial bones and teeth.A soluble form (sIL11RA) can act as an antagonist of IL11-dependent cell differentiation in cells where both transmembrane IL11RA and IL6ST are present.
Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE
Application Notes:
Always centrifuge tubes before opening.Do not mix by vortex or pipetting.It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100µg/ml.Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water.Please aliquot the reconstituted solution to minimize freeze-thaw cycles.
