IL-13Rα2 Polyclonal Antibody detects endogenous levels of IL-13Rα2 protein.
Formulation
Liquid in PBS containing 50% glycerol, 0.5% BSA and 0.02% sodium azide.
Dilution rate
WB: 1/500 - 1/2000. IHC-p: 1:100-1:300. ELISA: 1/10000.. IF 1:50-200
Purification process (Immunogen)
The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen.
Background
The protein encoded by this gene is closely related to Il13RA1, a subuint of the interleukin 13 receptor complex. This protein binds IL13 with high affinity, but lacks cytoplasmic domain, and does not appear to function as a signal mediator. It is reported to play a role in the internalization of IL13.

Function
domain:The box 1 motif is required for JAK interaction and/or activation.,domain:The WSXWS motif appears to be necessary for proper protein folding and thereby efficient intracellular transport and cell-surface receptor binding.,function:Binds as a monomer with high affinity to interleukin 13 (IL13), but not to IL4.,similarity:Belongs to the type I cytokine receptor family. Type 5 subfamily.,similarity:Contains 1 fibronectin type-III domain.,
