Gene information for IL13RA1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID3597
Official gene symbolIL13RA1
Full nameinterleukin 13 receptor, alpha 1
Aliases,CD213A1,IL-13Ra,NR4,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene is a subunit of the interleukin 13 receptor. This subunit forms a receptor complex with IL4 receptor alpha, a subunit shared by IL13 and IL4 receptors. This subunit serves as a primary IL13-binding subunit of the IL13 receptor, and may also be a component of IL4 receptors. This protein has been shown to bind tyrosine kinase TYK2, and thus may mediate the signaling processes that lead to the activation of JAK1, STAT3 and STAT6 induced by IL13 and IL4.
