interleukin-9 receptor (IL9 receptor, CD129)

Function: receptor for interleukin-9 Structure: - the WSXWS motif appears to be necessary for proper protein folding, efficient intracellular transport & cell-surface receptor binding - the box 1 motif is required for JAK interaction &/or activation - belongs to the type I cytokine receptor family, type 4 subfamily - contains 1 fibronectin F3 module Compartment: - cell membrane - secreted Note: - the gene encoding for this protein is located in the pseudoautosomal region 2 (PAR2) of X & Y chromosomes
