Human Gene IL3RA (ENST00000331035.10) from GENCODE V44
Description: Homo sapiens interleukin 3 receptor subunit alpha (IL3RA), transcript variant 1, mRNA. (from RefSeq NM_002183) RefSeq Summary (NM_002183): The protein encoded by this gene is an interleukin 3 specific subunit of a heterodimeric cytokine receptor. The receptor is comprised of a ligand specific alpha subunit and a signal transducing beta subunit shared by the receptors for interleukin 3 (IL3), colony stimulating factor 2 (CSF2/GM-CSF), and interleukin 5 (IL5). The binding of this protein to IL3 depends on the beta subunit. The beta subunit is activated by the ligand binding, and is required for the biological activities of IL3. This gene and the gene encoding the colony stimulating factor 2 receptor alpha chain (CSF2RA) form a cytokine receptor gene cluster in a X-Y pseudoautosomal region on chromosomes X or Y. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2012].

ID:IL3RA_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Interleukin-3 receptor subunit alpha; Short=IL-3 receptor subunit alpha; Short=IL-3R subunit alpha; Short=IL-3R-alpha; Short=IL-3RA; AltName: CD_antigen=CD123; Flags: Precursor; FUNCTION: This is a receptor for interleukin-3. SUBUNIT: Heterodimer of an alpha and a beta subunit. The beta subunit is common to the IL3, IL5 and GM-CSF receptors. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. DOMAIN: The WSXWS motif appears to be necessary for proper protein folding and thereby efficient intracellular transport and cell- surface receptor binding. DOMAIN: The box 1 motif is required for JAK interaction and/or activation. MISCELLANEOUS: The gene encoding for this protein is located in the pseudoautosomal region 1 (PAR1) of X and Y chromosomes. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the type I cytokine receptor family. Type 5 subfamily.

The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
