Short name=CNTF receptor subunit alpha
Short name=CNTFR-alpha

Gene names

Name:

CNTFR

Organism

Homo sapiens (Human)

Taxonomic identifier

9606 [NCBI]

Taxonomic lineage

Eukaryota › Metazoa › Chordata › Craniata › Vertebrata › Euteleostomi › Mammalia › Eutheria › Euarchontoglires › Primates › Haplorrhini › Catarrhini › Hominidae › Homo

Protein attributes

Sequence length	372 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Sequence processing	The displayed sequence is further processed into a mature form.
Protein existence	Evidence at protein level

General annotation (Comments)

Function	Binds to CNTF. The alpha subunit provides the receptor specificity.
Subunit structure	Heterotrimer of the alpha subunit, LIFR and IL6ST.
Subcellular location	Cell membrane; Lipid-anchor › GPI-anchor.
Tissue specificity	Nervous system and skeletal muscle.
Domain	The WSXWS motif appears to be necessary for proper protein folding and thereby efficient intracellular transport and cell-surface receptor binding.
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the type I cytokine receptor family. Type 3 subfamily. Contains 2 fibronectin type-III domains. Contains 1 Ig-like C2-type (immunoglobulin-like) domain.
