IL22RA1 (Interleukin-22 Receptor Subunit alpha-1, IL-22 Receptor Subunit alpha-1, IL-22R-alpha-1, IL-22RA1, Cytokine Receptor Class-II Member 9, Cytokine Receptor Family 2 Member 9, CRF2-9, ZcytoR11, IL22R) (AP)

The interleukin-22 receptor A1 (IL-22 Ra1), also known as CRF2-9, is a 557aa, ~65kD type I transmembrane protein of the type II cytokine receptor family (CRF). IL-22 RA1 forms an IL-22 signaling complex with IL-10 RB/CRF2-4 on epithelial and stromal cells. IL-22 engagement of the signaling complex stimulates antimicrobial, acute phase and proinflammatory protein expression. IL-22 Ra1 also pairs with IL-20 RB to form a receptor that is responsive to IL-20 and IL-24. Within the 211aa extracellular domain, mouse IL-22 Ra1 shares 78% and 94% aa sequence identity with human and rat IL-22 RA1. Applications: Suitable...
