Function
Receptor for IL27. Requires IL6ST/GP130 to mediate signal transduction in response to IL27. This signaling system acts through STAT3 and STAT1. Acts as a receptor for the neuroprotective peptide humanin as part of a complex with IL6ST/GP130 and CNTFR (PubMed:19386761). Involved in the regulation of Th1-type immune responses. Also appears to be involved in innate defense mechanisms.

Notes
Human WSX-1 Antibody Pair - BSA and Azide free (ab289806) is a matched pair of unconjugated recombinant rabbit monoclonal capture and detection antibodies used to quantify Human WSX-1 in sandwich ELISAs and many other pair-based applications.
Our RabMAb® technology is a patented hybridoma-based technology for making rabbit monoclonal antibodies. For details on our patents, please refer to RabMAb® patents.
Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with <1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.
The pair can be used in variety of assays and platforms including but not limited to:
- Sandwich ELISA
- FRET/TR-FRET/HTRF
- Meso Scale Discovery® (MSD®)
- Bead-based assays
- AlphaLISA®/AlphaScreen®
- DELFIA® immunoassays
- Simoa® and Single Molecule Counting (SMC™) immunoassays
- Multiplex
Our antibody pairs are supplied in a carrier-free format that is conjugation-ready:
- Buffer free of BSA, sodium azide, and glycerol for higher conjugation efficiency.
- Concentration of ~1 mg/ml as measured by the protein A280 method.
We can label antibodies for you: get in touch today to discuss how we can help accelerate your assay development with custom conjugation services.
Pairs are screened in biological samples, including plasma and serum, to ensure specificity in complex samples.
Please note:
The recommended antibody orientation is based on internal optimization in sandwich ELISA. Antibody orientation is assay dependent and needs to be optimized for each assay type.
The range provided for this antibody pair is based on initial sandwich ELISA validation data using recombinant protein. Performance and range of the antibody pair will depend on the specific characteristics of your assay, including standard protein selection.
We guarantee the product works in sandwich ELISA, but we do not guarantee the sensitivity or dynamic range of the antibodies in other assays.

- Activity summary
The WSX-1 protein also known as IL-27Rα or TCCR is a subunit of the interleukin-27 receptor. It weighs approximately 74 kDa and is mainly expressed on various immune cells including T cells B cells and monocytes. WSX-1 engages in the immune signaling by interacting specifically with its ligand IL-27 to drive immunological responses. This receptor belongs to the type I cytokine receptor family and is structurally characterized by certain conserved motifs important for its signaling functions.
- Biological function summary
WSX-1 plays a role in regulating immune cell activity and differentiation. It acts as a part of a receptor complex with gp130 to form the IL-27 receptor which transmits signals that modulate the activity of T helper cells. This signaling influences the production of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines impacting immune system balance. The function of WSX-1 remains critical for controlling inflammatory responses and ensuring immune tolerance.
- Pathways
WSX-1 contributes to the JAK/STAT signaling pathway and influences the differentiation of Th1 cells. The connection to JAK/STAT signaling involves various proteins such as STAT1 and STAT3 which transduce IL-27-induced signals leading to gene expression changes in immune cells. Through its action in these pathways WSX-1 regulates immune responses and can influence inflammation dynamics in various biological contexts.
- Associated diseases and disorders
WSX-1 has associations with autoimmune diseases and infectious conditions. Alterations in its signaling pathways can lead to dysregulated immune responses contributing to diseases like multiple sclerosis and inflammatory bowel disease. The protein’s interaction with IL-27 is central in these conditions as it influences the pro-inflammatory and regulatory functions of the immune system. Furthermore studies suggest a link between WSX-1 activity and the modulation of responses against infections linking it to potential therapeutic targets for managing related disorders.
