Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables interleukin-1 receptor activity and interleukin-33 receptor activity. Involved in several processes, including interleukin-33-mediated signaling pathway; positive regulation of cytokine production; and regulation of synapse assembly. Acts upstream of or within cytokine-mediated signaling pathway. Is active in glutamatergic synapse. Is expressed in several structures, including aorta-gonad-mesonephros; brain ventricle and choroid plexus; forebrain; renal calyx; and ventral grey horn. Orthologous to human IL1RAP (interleukin 1 receptor accessory protein). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele are viable, fertile and grossly normal but show no biological response to IL-1. [provided by MGI curators] |
