IL6ST, also known as interleukin6 signal transducer, belongs to class 1 cytokine receptor family. Binding of IL-6 (IL-11) to either the membrane-anchored or soluble IL-6R (IL-11R) initiates the association of IL-6 R (IL-11 R) with IL6ST when then undergoes homo-dimerization and signal transduction. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to aa23-619 from human IL6ST, fused to His-tag at C-terminal expressed in insect cell.
