high affinity interleukin-8 receptor B; IL-8R B; CXCR-2; GRO/MGSA receptor; IL-8 receptor type 2; CDw128b; CD182 (IL8RB, CXCR2)

Function: - receptor for interleukin-8 - binding of IL-8 causes activation of neutrophils - response is mediated via a G-protein that activates a phosphatidylinositol-Ca+2 second messenger system - binds to IL-8 with high affinity - also binds with high affinity to CXCL3, GRO/MGSA & NAP-2 - phosphorylated upon ligand binding; which is required for desensitization Structure: belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family Compartment: cell membrane
