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 leads to the regulation of the immune response, acute-phase reactions and hematopoiesis. The interaction with membrane-bound IL6R and IL6ST stimulates 'classic signaling', the restricted expression of the IL6R limits classic IL6 signaling to only a few tissues such as the liver and some cells of the immune system. Whereas the binding of IL6 and soluble IL6R to IL6ST stimulates 'trans-signaling'. Alternatively, 'cluster signaling' occurs when membrane-bound IL6:IL6R complexes on transmitter cells activate IL6ST receptors on neighboring receiver cells.1 Publication
Signaling via the membrane-bound IL6R is mostly regenerative and anti-inflammatory (Probable). Drives naive CD4+ T cells to the Th17 lineage, through 'cluster signaling' by dendritic cells (PubMed:27893700).1 Publication1 Publication
Soluble form of IL6 receptor (sIL6R) that acts as an agonist of IL6 activity (PubMed:11113088). The IL6:sIL6R complex (hyper-IL6) binds to IL6ST/gp130 on cell surfaces and induces signaling also on cells that do not express membrane-bound IL6R in a process called IL6 'trans-signaling'. sIL6R is causative for the proinflammatory properties of IL6 and an important player in the development of chronic inflammatory diseases (By similarity). In complex with IL6, is required for induction of VEGF production (By similarity). Plays a protective role during liver injury, being required for maintenance of tissue regeneration (PubMed:11113088). 'Trans-signaling' in central nervous system regulates energy and glucose homeostasis (PubMed:28402851).By similarity2 Publications

Component of a hexamer of two molecules each of IL6, IL6R and IL6ST; first binds to IL6 to associate with the signaling subunit IL6ST (PubMed:28265003).

Interacts (via N-terminal ectodomain) with SORL1; this interaction may affect IL6-binding to IL6R, hence decrease IL6 'classic-signaling' (PubMed:28265003).

1 Publication

Also interacts with SORL1; this interaction leads to soluble IL6R internalization. May form a trimeric complex with the soluble SORL1 ectodomain and circulating IL6 receptor; this interaction might stabilize circulating IL6, hence promote IL6 'trans-signaling'.

<p>This subsection of the 'Entry information' section provides a mnemonic identifier for a UniProtKB entry, but it is not a stable identifier. Each reviewed entry is assigned a unique entry name upon integration into UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot.<p><a href='/help/entry_name' target='_top'>More...</a></p>Entry nameiIL6RA_MOUSE
<p>This subsection of the 'Entry information' section provides one or more accession number(s). These are stable identifiers and should be used to cite UniProtKB entries. Upon integration into UniProtKB, each entry is assigned a unique accession number, which is called 'Primary (citable) accession number'.<p><a href='/help/accession_numbers' target='_top'>More...</a></p>AccessioniPrimary (citable) accession number: P22272
<p>This subsection of the 'Entry information' section shows the date of integration of the entry into UniProtKB, the date of the last sequence update and the date of the last annotation modification ('Last modified'). The version number for both the entry and the <a href="http://www.uniprot.org/help/canonical%5Fand%5Fisoforms">canonical sequence</a> are also displayed.<p><a href='/help/entry_history' target='_top'>More...</a></p>Entry historyiIntegrated into UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: August 1, 1991

This is version 191 of the entry and version 2 of the sequence. See complete history.
<p>This subsection of the 'Entry information' section indicates whether the entry has been manually annotated and reviewed by UniProtKB curators or not, in other words, if the entry belongs to the Swiss-Prot section of UniProtKB (<strong>reviewed</strong>) or to the computer-annotated TrEMBL section (<strong>unreviewed</strong>).<p><a href='/help/entry_status' target='_top'>More...</a></p>Entry statusiReviewed (UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot)
