Gene: IL1RL1
Alternate names for this Gene: DER4|FIT-1|IL33R|ST2|ST2L|ST2V|T1
Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the interleukin 1 receptor family. Studies of the similar gene in mouse suggested that this receptor can be induced by proinflammatory stimuli, and may be involved in the function of helper T cells. This gene, interleukin 1 receptor, type I (IL1R1), interleukin 1 receptor, type II (IL1R2) and interleukin 1 receptor-like 2 (IL1RL2) form a cytokine receptor gene cluster in a region mapped to chromosome 2q12. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 2
Location in Chromosome : 2q12.1
Description of this Gene: interleukin 1 receptor like 1
Type of Gene: protein-coding
Gene: IL18R1
Alternate names for this Gene: CD218a|CDw218a|IL-18R-alpha|IL-18Ralpha|IL-1Rrp|IL18RA|IL18Ralpha2|IL1RRP
Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a cytokine receptor that belongs to the interleukin 1 receptor family. This receptor specifically binds interleukin 18 (IL18), and is essential for IL18 mediated signal transduction. IFN-alpha and IL12 are reported to induce the expression of this receptor in NK and T cells. This gene along with four other members of the interleukin 1 receptor family, including IL1R2, IL1R1, ILRL2 (IL-1Rrp2), and IL1RL1 (T1/ST2), form a gene cluster on chromosome 2q. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
