ID:I28RA_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Interleukin-28 receptor subunit alpha; Short=IL-28 receptor subunit alpha; Short=IL-28R-alpha; Short=IL-28RA; AltName: Full=Cytokine receptor class-II member 12; AltName: Full=Cytokine receptor family 2 member 12; Short=CRF2-12; AltName: Full=Interferon lambda receptor 1; Short=IFN-lambda receptor 1; Short=IFN-lambda-R1; AltName: Full=Likely interleukin or cytokine receptor 2; Short=LICR2; Flags: Precursor; 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. SUBUNIT: Heterodimer with IL10RB. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein (By similarity). TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Widely expressed. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the type II cytokine receptor family. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 fibronectin type-III domain. SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=BAD18707.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Note=Translation N-terminally shortened;
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.
