Mouse IL-17RE (NP_665825) VersaClone cDNA

Interleukin-17 Receptor E (IL-17RE) is a transmembrane protein that is expressed on mucosal epithelial cells, keratinocytes, Th17 cells, and gamma delta T cells. It associates with IL-17RA to form a heterodimeric receptor for IL-17C. Binding of IL-17C to this receptor complex promotes mucosal immunity by stimulating the production of anti-bacterial peptides and pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines. Additionally, IL-17C signaling regulates Th17 cell-dependent immune responses and has been suggested to contribute to psoriatic skin thickening, the progression of arthritis, and the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases.
