Product Properties
Storage Instruction
Store the unopened kit in the fridge at 2-8°C for up to 6 months. Once opened store individual kit contents according to components table provided with the kit.
Found in all the tissues and cell lines examined. Expression not restricted to IL6 responsive cells. Isoform 2: Expressed in blood serum (at protein level).
Post Translational Modifications
Phosphorylation of Ser-782 down-regulates cell surface expression. Heavily N-glycosylated. Glycosylation is required for protein stability and localization in plasma membrane but not for ligand binding.
Function
Signal-transducing molecule. The receptor systems for IL6, LIF, OSM, CNTF, IL11, CTF1 and BSF3 can utilize IL6ST for initiating signal transmission. Binding of IL6 to IL6R induces IL6ST homodimerization and formation of a high-affinity receptor complex, which activates the intracellular JAK-MAPK and JAK-STAT3 signaling pathways. That causes phosphorylation of IL6ST tyrosine residues which in turn activates STAT3. In parallel, the IL6 signaling pathway induces the expression of two cytokine receptor signaling inhibitors, SOCS1 and SOCS3, which inhibit JAK and terminate the activity of the IL6 signaling pathway as a negative feedback loop. Also activates the yes-associated protein 1 (YAP) and NOTCH pathways to control inflammation-induced epithelial regeneration, independently of STAT3. Acts as a receptor for the neuroprotective peptide humanin as part of a complex with IL27RA/WSX1 and CNTFR. Mediates signals which regulate immune response, hematopoiesis, pain control and bone metabolism. Has a role in embryonic development. Essential for survival of motor and sensory neurons and for differentiation of astrocytes. Required for expression of TRPA1 in nociceptive neurons. Required for the maintenance of PTH1R expression in the osteoblast lineage and for the stimulation of PTH-induced osteoblast differentiation. Required for normal trabecular bone mass and cortical bone composition. Isoform 2: Binds to the soluble IL6:sIL6R complex (hyper-IL6), thereby blocking IL6 trans-signaling. Inhibits sIL6R-dependent acute phase response. Also blocks IL11 cluster signaling through IL11R.
