Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
Related Product Information for IL13RA2 recombinant protein
The biological activity of IL-13 is regulated via the IL-13R type I and type II. The type I receptor is a heterodimer of the IL-4R α chain (IL-4Rα) and IL-13Rα1, and ligand-receptor interactions induce phosphorylation of the IL- 4Rα and subsequent activation of the signal transducers and activators of transcription (STAT) -6 signaling pathway. This pathway appears to be the primary pathway for IL-13- induced signaling in nonhematopoietic cells. The type II receptor is composed of IL-13Rα1 and IL-13Rα2. IL-13Rα2 binds IL-13 with high affinity and is proposed to act as a decoy receptor that limits the activity of IL-13. Consistent with this, mice deficient in IL-13Rα2 demonstrate exaggerated IL- 13-induced pathologies. IL- 13Rα2 possesses a short cytoplasmic tail and is without signal motifs; however, there have been a number of reports to suggest IL-13 signals through this chain, possibly via a STAT6- independent, AP-1-dependent manner to induce activation of the Tgfβ1 promoter via the IL-13 type II receptor.

NCBI Description

This gene encodes a receptor protein that binds to interleukin 13 (IL-13) with very high affinity. The encoded protein acts as a decoy receptor, and does not elicit any signal upon the binding of IL-13. Mice lacking the encoded protein exhibit increased levels of serum immunoglobulins, immune-dependent production of interferon gamma and, increased bone marrow macrophage progenitor frequency. Macrophages lacking the encoded protein release less nitric oxide and IL-12 in response to lipopolysaccharide. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2015]

Uniprot Description

IL13RA2: a type I membrane protein that binds with high affinity to interleukin-13 (IL13), but not to interleukin-4 (IL4). Lacks a cytoplasmic domain, and does not appear to function as a signal mediator. It is reported to play a role in the internalization of IL13. A member of the Cancer-Testis Antigen (CTA) superfamily. CTAs may play roles in embryonal development and tumor transformation or aspects of tumor progression. CTAs were once thought to be silenced in most normal adult tissues, with limited expression in fetal, placental, testis, and ovarian cells. These proteins are now known to be aberrantly expressed in various cancers and many are capable of eliciting humoral and cellular immune responses. The WSXWS motif appears to be necessary for proper protein folding and thereby efficient intracellular transport and cell-surface receptor binding. The box 1 motif is required for JAK interaction and/or activation. Often overexpressed in brain tumors. A potential vaccine targets for immunotherapy of glioma.

Product Notes

The IL13RA2 il13ra2 (Catalog #AAA553325) is a Recombinant Protein produced from HEk293 Cells and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "IL-13 alpha 2 receptor (IL13RA2), Recombinant Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
