• Species Reactivity

  Mouse

• Specificity

  Detects mouse IL‑17 RA/IL‑17 R in direct ELISAs and Western blots. In direct ELISAs, no cross-reactivity with recombinant human IL-17 RA, recombinant mouse (rm) IL-17B R, rmIL-17 RD, or rmIL-17 RC is observed. In Western blots, less than 10% cross‑reactivity with recombinant human (rh) IL-17 RA or rhIL-17B R is observed.

Background: IL-17 RA/IL-17 R

IL-17 receptor alpha subunit (IL-17 RA), also known as IL-17 R, is a widely expressed 120 kDa glycosylated type I transmembrane protein that plays a central role in inflammatory responses. IL‑17 RA associates with IL-17 RC to form a signaling receptor complex for IL-17 and IL-17F. IL-17 RA ligation promotes T cell activation and the production of IL-6, G‑CSF, SCF, and multiple proinflammatory chemokines. Within the ECD, mouse IL-17 RA shares 84% and 72% aa sequence identity with rat and human IL17 RA, respectively.
