Rabbit anti-Human CD121a Polyclonal Antibody

Uniprot Id

P14778

Target Species

Human

Target Name

IL1R1

Target Full Name

Interleukin-1 receptor type 1

Target Function

Receptor for IL1A, IL1B and IL1RN. After binding to interleukin-1 associates with the coreceptor IL1RAP to form the high affinity interleukin-1 receptor complex which mediates interleukin-1-dependent activation of NF-kappa-B, MAPK and other pathways. Signaling involves the recruitment of adapter molecules such as TOLLIP, MYD88, and IRAK1 or IRAK2 via the respective TIR domains of the receptor/coreceptor subunits. Binds ligands with comparable affinity and binding of antagonist IL1RN prevents association with IL1RAP to form a signaling complex. Involved in IL1B-mediated costimulation of IFNG production from T-helper 1 (Th1) cells.

Target Subcellular Location

Membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Cell membrane. Secreted.

Target Protein Families

Interleukin-1 receptor family

Target Tissue Specificity

Expressed in T-helper cell subsets. Preferentially expressed in T-helper 1 (Th1) cells.

Target Background

This gene encodes a cytokine receptor that belongs to the interleukin-1 receptor family. The encoded protein is a receptor for interleukin-1 alpha, interleukin-1 beta, and interleukin-1 receptor antagonist. It is an important mediator involved in many cytokine-induced immune and inflammatory responses. This gene is located in a cluster of related cytokine receptor genes on chromosome 2q12.
