IL22RA1

Interleukin 22 receptor, alpha 1 is a is_associated_with::protein that in humans is encoded by the IL22RA1 is_associated_with::gene.

Function
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the class II is_associated_with::cytokine receptor family, and has been shown to be a receptor for interleukin 22 (IL22). IL22 receptor is a protein complex that consists of this protein and interleukin 10 receptor, beta (is_associated_with::IL10RB/CRFB4), a subunit also shared by the receptor complex for interleukin 10 (IL10). This gene and interleukin 28 receptor, alpha (is_associated_with::IL28RA) form a cytokine receptor gene cluster in the chromosomal region 1p36.
