A recombinant fragment of the human protein corresponding to the extracellular domain was used as the immunogen for the Interleukin 6 Receptor subunit beta antibody.
IL6ST is a signal-transducing molecule. The receptor systems for IL6, LIF, OSM, CNTF, IL11, CTF1 and BSF3 can utilize IL6ST for initiating signal transmission. Binding of IL6 to IL6R induces IL6ST homodimerization and formation of a high-affinity recepto
