IL22RA1 interleukin 22 receptor subunit alpha 1

Gene ID: 58985, updated on 17-Sep-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: IL22R; CRF2-9; IL22R1

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the class II cytokine receptor family, and has been shown to be a receptor for interleukin 22 (IL22). IL22 receptor is a protein complex that consists of this protein and interleukin 10 receptor, beta (IL10BR/CRFB4), a subunit also shared by the receptor complex for interleukin 10 (IL10). This gene and interleukin 28 receptor, alpha (IL28RA) form a cytokine receptor gene cluster in the chromosomal region 1p36. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
