Interleukin-3 Receptor

Source:http://linkedlifedata.com/resource/umls/id/C0080096

MSH: High affinity receptors for INTERLEUKIN-3. They are found on early HEMATOPOIETIC PROGENITOR CELLS; progenitors of MYELOID CELLS; EOSINOPHILS; and BASOPHILS. Interleukin-3 receptors are formed by the dimerization of the INTERLEUKIN-3 RECEPTOR ALPHA SUBUNIT and the CYTOKINE RECEPTOR COMMON BETA SUBUNIT.,NCI: Heterodimeric human Interleukin 3 Receptor is composed of 378-aa 43-kDa (precursor) Interleukin 3 Receptor Alpha and GM-CSF/IL-3/IL-5 Receptor Common Beta-Chain. IL3RA is a type I membrane protein with a box 1 motif for JAK interaction/activation and a WSXWS motif for protein folding, intracellular transport, and cell-surface receptor binding. Receptor binding to IL3 depends on the signal transducing beta subunit, common to the high affinity IL3-, IL5- and GM-CSF receptors. (NCI)
