Vectors for Human IL6R

Gene Information

  • Offical Gene Symbol IL6R
  • Species Human (Homo sapiens)
  • Offical Full Name interleukin 6 receptor
  • Other Aliases CD126; HIES5; IL-1Ra; IL-6R; IL-6R-1; IL-6RA; IL6Q; IL6QTL; IL6RA; IL6RQ; gp80
  • Other Desigations interleukin-6 receptor subunit alpha; CD126 antigen; IL-6 receptor subunit alpha; membrane glycoprotein 80
  • Gene Type protein-coding
  • Summary
    This gene encodes a subunit of the interleukin 6 (IL6) receptor complex. Interleukin 6 is a potent pleiotropic cytokine that regulates cell growth and differentiation and plays an important role in the immune response. The IL6 receptor is a protein complex consisting of this protein and interleukin 6 signal transducer (IL6ST/GP130/IL6-beta), a receptor subunit also shared by many other cytokines. Dysregulated production of IL6 and this receptor are implicated in the pathogenesis of many diseases, such as multiple myeloma, autoimmune diseases and prostate cancer. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified in this gene. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome 9.
