Tissue Specificity | Ubiquitous. Highest levels in heart, liver, skeletal muscle and ovary.lowest levels in brain, lung and kidney. Also found in B-cells, T-cells and endothelial cells. |
Function | Binds with low affinity to interleukin-13 (IL13). Together with IL4RA can form a functional receptor for IL13. Also serves as an alternate accessory protein to the common cytokine receptor gamma chain for interleukin-4 (IL4) signaling, but cannot replace the function of IL2RG in allowing enhanced interleukin-2 (IL2) binding activity. |
