gp130
Signal-transducing molecule. The receptor systems for IL6, LIF, OSM, CNTF, IL11, CTF1 and BSF3 can utilize IL6ST for initiating signal transmission. Binding of IL6 to IL6R induces IL6ST homodimerization and formation of a high-affinity receptor complex, which activates Janus kinases. That causes phosphorylation of IL6ST tyrosine residues which in turn activates STAT3. Mediates signals which regulate immune response, hematopoiesis, pain control and bone metabolism. Has a role in embryonic development. Does not bind IL6. Essential for survival of motor and sensory neurons and for differentiation of astrocytes. Required for expression of TRPA1 in nociceptive neurons. Required for the maintenance of PTH1R expression in the osteoblast lineage and for the stimulation of PTH-induced osteoblast differentiation. Required for normal trabecular bone mass and cortical bone composition. Belongs to the type I cytokine receptor family. Type 2 subfamily. Found in all the tissues and cell lines examined (PubMed:2261637). Expression not restricted to IL6 responsive cells (PubMed:2261637). Expressed in blood serum (at protein level) (PubMed:24629561). 3 alternatively spliced human isoforms have been reported. Note: This description may include information from UniProtKB.
