Recombinant Human IL6R protein (His Tag)

Product Specifications

Background

Part of the receptor for interleukin 6. Binds to IL6 with low affinity, but does not transduce a signal. Signal activation necessitate an association with IL6ST. Activation may lead to the regulation of the immune response, acute-phase reactions and hematopoiesis.

Abbreviation

IL6R
