IL18R1 (interleukin-18 receptor 1), also known as IL18RA, IL1RRP and CD218a, is a single-pass, type I transmembrane glycoprotein that belongs to the interleukin-1 receptor (IL1R) family. Like other family members, IL18R1 contain 3 immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domains in the extracellular region and an intracellular TIR (Toll-like receptor/IL-1 receptor) signaling domain that is also conserved in the Toll-like receptor family. Within the IL18 receptor complex, IL18R1 is responsible for the binding of the proinflammatory cytokine IL18, but not IL1A nor IL1B and contributes to IL18-induced cytokine production, either independently of SLC12A3, or as a complex with SLC12A3.  IL18 is a proinflammatory cytokine involved in inducing cell-mediated immunity. IFN-alpha and IL12 are reported to induce the expression of IL18R1 in NK and T cells. IL18R1 along with four other members of the interleukin 1 receptor family, including IL1R2, IL1R1, ILRL2 (IL-1Rrp2), and IL1RL1 (T1/ST2), form a gene cluster on chromosome 2q.

Primers: Gene insert coding sequence can be confirmed by following primers:

(a) forward (or 5'-end) primer: 5’-CAAATGGGCGGTAGGCGTG-3’;

(b) reverse (or 3'-end) primer: 5’-CCAGGTTTCCGGGCCCTCAC-3’

 

 

Note: The sequence may vary due to the naturally occurring variants or mutations, such as single nucleotide polymorphism, or the artifact during PCR amplification.  High fidelity PCR systems should always be used.
