Summary
Predicted to enable interleukin-15 receptor activity and protein kinase binding activity. Involved in negative regulation of neuron projection development; receptor signaling pathway via JAK-STAT; and response to nutrient levels. Predicted to be located in cell surface and cytoplasmic vesicle. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Orthologous to human IL15RA (interleukin 15 receptor subunit alpha).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
