Rabbit anti-Human IL17RE Polyclonal Antibody

Uniprot Id

Q8NFR9

Target Species

Human

Target Name

IL17RE

Target Full Name

Interleukin-17 receptor E

Target Function

Specific functional receptor for IL17C. May be signaling through the NF-kappa-B and MAPK pathways. May require TRAF3IP2 /ACT1 for signaling. May be a crucial regulator in innate immunity to bacterial pathogens. Isoform 2 and isoform 4 may be either cytoplasmic inactive or dominant active forms. Isoform 3 and isoform 5 may act as soluble decoy receptors.

Target Subcellular Location

[Isoform 1]: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein.; [Isoform 2]: Cytoplasm.; [Isoform 3]: Secreted.; [Isoform 4]: Cytoplasm.; [Isoform 5]: Secreted.

Target Tissue Specificity

Predominantly expressed in mucosal tissues with high levels in keratinocytes and colon epithelial cells. Very low expression in dermal fibroblasts. Expressed in various tumor cell lines.

Target Synonyms

IL17RE; UNQ3056/PRO9877; Interleukin-17 receptor E; IL-17 receptor E; IL-17RE

Target Background

This gene encodes a transmembrane protein that functions as the receptor for interleukin-17C. The encoded protein signals to downstream components of the mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway. Activity of this protein is important in the immune response to bacterial pathogens. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described for this gene.
