Oncostatin M receptor

Oncostatin-M specific receptor subunit beta also known as the oncostatin M receptor, is one of the receptor proteins for is_associated_with::oncostatin M, that in humans is encoded by the OSMR is_associated_with::gene.

OSMR is a member of the is_associated_with::type I cytokine receptor family. This protein heterodimerizes with interleukin 6 signal transducer to form the type II oncostatin M receptor and with interleukin 31 receptor A to form the interleukin 31 receptor, and thus transduces is_associated_with::oncostatin M and is_associated_with::interleukin 31 induced signaling events.

Clinical significance
The oncostatin M receptor is associated with is_associated_with::primary cutaneous amyloidosis.
