Synonym
CD217, CDw217, IL-17RA, IL17R, CANDF5, hIL-17R
Source
Human IL-17 RA, His Tag (ILA-H5222) is expressed from human 293 cells (HEK293). It contains AA Leu 33 - Trp 320 (Accession # Q96F46-1).
Predicted N-terminus: Leu 33
Molecular Characterization

This protein carries a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus.
The protein has a calculated MW of 34.3 kDa. The protein migrates as 50-65 kDa under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation.
Endotoxin
Less than 1.0 EU per μg by the LAL method / rFC method.
Purity
>98% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
Formulation
Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in PBS, pH7.4 with trehalose as protectant.

Background
Interleukin 17 receptor A (IL17RA) is also known as cluster of differentiation w217 (CDw217), is a pro-inflammatory cytokine secreted by activated T-lymphocytes, belong to ubiquitous type I membrane glycoprotein, and binds with low affinity to interleukin 17A (IL17A). IL 17R mRNA exhibits a broad tissue distribution, and has been detected in virtually all cells and tissues tested . IL 17RA associates with IL 17RC to form a signaling receptor complex for IL 17 and IL 17F . Ligand and IL 17RA ligation promotes T cell activation and the production of IL - 6, G-CSF, SCF, and multiple pro-inflammatory chemokines. Defects in IL17RA are the cause of familial candidiasis type 5 (CANDF5).
