Recombinant Active Human IL17RA Protein (ECD), His-tagged(C-ter)

• Cat.No.: IL17RA-153H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Active Human IL17RA Protein (ECD) with His tag (C-ter) was expressed in HEK293.

Specification

• Description: Interleukin 17A (IL17A) is a proinflammatory cytokine secreted by activated T-lymphocytes. It is a potent inducer of the maturation of CD34-positive hematopoietic precursors into neutrophils. The transmembrane protein encoded by this gene (interleukin 17A receptor; IL17RA) is a ubiquitous type I membrane glycoprotein that binds with low affinity to interleukin 17A. Interleukin 17A and its receptor play a pathogenic role in many inflammatory and autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis. Like other cytokine receptors, this receptor likely has a multimeric structure. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.
