Related Product Information for anti-OSMR antibody
Oncostatin M Receptor beta (OSM Rb) is a type I transmembrane protein that binds OSM with low affinity by itself and high affinity as an OSM Rb/gp130 heterodimer. OSM Rb is widely expressed and transduces signals involved in hematopoiesis, liver development, peripheral neuron repair and epithelial cell function. Mature human OSM Rb contains a 712aa extracellular domain (ECD) with one partial and one complete hematopoietin domain, an Ig-like domain and three fibronectin type-III domains, a 22aa transmembrane segment, and a 218aa cytoplasmic domain. Human OSM Rb ECD shares 55% aa sequence identity with mouse OSM Rb.
Product Categories/Family for anti-OSMR antibody
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a member of the type I cytokine receptor family. The encoded 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 oncostatin M and interleukin 31 induced signaling events. Mutations in this gene have been associated with familial primary localized cutaneous amyloidosis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Uniprot Description
OSMR: Associates with IL31RA to form the IL31 receptor. Binds IL31 to activate STAT3 and possibly STAT1 and STAT5. Capable of transducing OSM-specific signaling events. Defects in OSMR are the cause of amyloidosis primary localized cutaneous type 1 (PLCA1); also known as familial lichen amyloidosis or familial cutaneous lichen amyloidosis. PLCA1 is a hereditary primary amyloidosis characterized by localized cutaneous amyloid deposition. This condition usually presents with itching (especially on the lower legs) and visible changes of skin hyperpigmentation and thickening (lichenification) that may be exacerbated by chronic scratching and rubbing. The amyloid deposits probably reflect a combination of degenerate keratin filaments, serum amyloid P component, and deposition of immunoglobulins. Belongs to the type I cytokine receptor family. Type 2 subfamily. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The OSMR osmr (Catalog #
AAA609180) is an Antibody produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The OSMR (Oncostatin-M-specific Receptor Subunit beta, Interleukin-31 Receptor Subunit beta, IL-31 Receptor Subunit beta, IL-31R Subunit beta, IL-31R-beta, IL-31RB, OSMRB) (APC) reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's OSMR can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Flow Cytometry (FC/FACS). Suitable for use in Flow Cytometry. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the OSMR osmr for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process.
It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of
"OSMR, Monoclonal Antibody" 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.
