General annotation (Comments)

Function

The IL28RA/IL10RB dimer is a receptor for IL28A, IL28B and IL29. The ligand/receptor complex seems to signal through the Jak-STAT pathway. Ref.1 Ref.2 Ref.3

Subunit structure

Heterodimer with IL10RB. Ref.2 Ref.3

Subcellular location

Membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein By similarity.

Tissue specificity

Widely expressed. Ref.2 Ref.3

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the type II cytokine receptor family.

Contains 1 fibronectin type-III domain.

Alternative products

This entry describes 4 isoforms produced by alternative splicing. [Align] [Select]
Isoform 1 (identifier: Q8IU57-1)

Also known as: IL-28R-alpha-v1;

This isoform has been chosen as the 'canonical' sequence. All positional information in this entry refers to it. This is also the sequence that appears in the downloadable versions of the entry.
Isoform 2 (identifier: Q8IU57-2)

Also known as: IL-28R-alpha-v2;

The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows:
     268-296: Missing.
Isoform 3 (identifier: Q8IU57-3)

Also known as: IL-28R-alpha-v3;

The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows:
     171-211: TLFPVTPHGQ...YTFSVPKYSK → VGSSFPAPRL...LLQEVFPVHS
     212-244: Missing.
     245-520: Missing.
Isoform 4 (identifier: Q8IU57-4)

Also known as: Secreted;

The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows:
     224-244: EANWAFLVLPSLLILLLVIAA → GLFWTHTPCGNLSAQQTRVRE
     245-520: Missing.
