Recombinant Mouse Il1r2 Protein/IL-1 RII is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Phe14-Glu355 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus.
Alternative Names
Interleukin-1 receptor type 2; IL-1R-2; IL-1RT-2; IL-1RT2; CD121 antigen-like family member B; CD121b; IL-1 type II receptor; Interleukin-1 receptor beta; IL-1R-beta; Interleukin-1 receptor type II; CD121b
Background
Mouse Interleukin 1 receptor, type II (IL1R2) is a cytokine receptor that belongs to the interleukin-1 receptor family. This protein binds interleukin alpha (IL1A), interleukin beta (IL1B), and interleukin 1 receptor, type I (IL1R1/IL1RA), and acts as a decoy receptor that inhibits the activity of its ligands. IL-1R2 structurally consisting of a ligand binding portion comprised of three Ig-like domains, a single transmembrane region, and a short cytoplasmic domain. It is expressed in a variety of cell types including B lymphocytes, neutrophils, monocytes, large granular leukocytes and endothelial cells. Mouse IL1RII shares 59% amino acid sequence homology with human IL1 RII in their extracellular domains. The pleiotropic cytokine IL1 is produced to regulate development and maintenance of the inflammatory responses, and binds to specific plasma membrane receptors on cells. Two distinct types of IL1 receptors which are able to bind IL1 specifically have been identified, designated as IL1RI (IL1RA) and IL1RII (IL1RB). IL1R1 contributes to IL-1 signaling, whereas the IL-1R2 has no signaling property and acts as a decoy for IL-1.
