Background

Function：Part of the receptor for interleukin 6. Binds to IL6 with low affinity, but does not transduce a signal (PubMed:28265003). Signal activation necessitate an association with IL6ST. Activation leads to the regulation of the immune response, acute-phase reactions and hematopoiesis (PubMed:30995492, PubMed:31235509). The interaction with membrane-bound IL6R and IL6ST stimulates 'classic signaling', the restricted expression of the IL6R limits classic IL6 signaling to only a few tissues such as the liver and some cells of the immune system. Whereas the binding of IL6 and soluble IL6R to IL6ST stimulates 'trans-signaling'. Alternatively, 'cluster signaling' occurs when membrane-bound IL6:IL6R complexes on transmitter cells activate IL6ST receptors on neighboring receiver cells (Probable); Signaling via the membrane-bound IL6R is mostly regenerative and anti-inflammatory (Probable). Drives naive CD4(+) T cells to the Th17 lineage, through 'cluster signaling' by dendritic cells (By similarity); Soluble form of IL6 receptor (sIL6R) that acts as an agonist of IL6 activity (PubMed:21990364). The IL6:sIL6R complex (hyper-IL6) binds to IL6ST/gp130 on cell surfaces and induces signaling also on cells that do not express membrane-bound IL6R in a process called IL6 'trans-signaling'. sIL6R is causative for the pro-inflammatory properties of IL6 and an important player in the development of chronic inflammatory diseases (PubMed:21990364). In complex with IL6, is required for induction of VEGF production (PubMed:12794819). Plays a protective role during liver injury, being required for maintenance of tissue regeneration (By similarity). 'Trans-signaling' in central nervous system regulates energy and glucose homeostasis (By similarity); Soluble form of IL6 receptor (sIL6R) that acts as an agonist of IL6 activity (PubMed:21990364).

Subcellular Localization：Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein; Secreted; Secreted

Expression：
Tissue_specificity:sIL6R is mainly expressed in peripheral blood mononuclear cells, with low levels in urine and serum. 1%-20% of total sIL6R in plasma is generated by alternative splicing (PubMed:28060820) .

Isoforms & Post-Translational Modification：P08887 has 2 isomers: P08887-1: 51548 Da (predicted); P08887-2: 40237 Da (predicted).
A short soluble form is released from the membrane by proteolysis (PubMed:26876177). The sIL6R is formed mostly by limited proteolysis of membrane-bound receptors, a process referred to as ectodomain shedding, but is also directly secreted from the cells after alternative mRNA splicing (PubMed:26876177, PubMed:28060820). mIL6R is cleaved by the proteases ADAM10 and ADAM17 (PubMed:26876177, PubMed:28060820);Glycosylated. Glycosylation is dispensable for transport, signaling, and cell-surface turnover. Glycosylation at Asn-55 is a protease-regulatory exosite. Glycosylation is required for ADAM17-mediated proteolysis

Subunit：Component of a hexamer of two molecules each of IL6, IL6R and IL6ST; first binds to IL6 to associate with the signaling subunit IL6ST (PubMed:12829785, PubMed:28265003). Interacts (via N-terminal ectodomain) with SORL1; this interaction may affect IL6-binding to IL6R, hence decrease IL6 'classic-signaling' (PubMed:28265003)
