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
