Product overview
Abcam’s IL-6 Receptor (Interleukin-6 Receptor) Human in vitro ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) kit is designed for the quantitative measurement of soluble IL-6 Receptor in Human serum, plasma, buffered solutions and cell culture medium.
A monoclonal antibody specific for IL-6 Receptor has been coated onto the wells of the microtiter strips provided. Samples, including standards of known IL-6 Receptor concentrations, control specimens or unknowns are pipetted into these wells. During the first incubation, the standards or samples and a biotinylated monoclonal antibody specific for IL-6 Receptor are simultaneously incubated. After washing, the enzyme Streptavidin-HRP, that binds the biotinylated antibody is added, incubated and washed. A TMB substrate solution is added which acts on the bound enzyme to induce a colored reaction product. The intensity of this colored product is directly proportional to the concentration of IL-6 Receptor present in the samples.
This kit will recognize both endogenous and recombinant Human IL-6 Receptor.

Function
Part of the receptor for interleukin 6. Binds to IL6 with low affinity, but does not transduce a signal. Signal activation necessitate an association with IL6ST. Activation may lead to the regulation of the immune response, acute-phase reactions and hematopoiesis.
Low concentration of a soluble form of IL6 receptor acts as an agonist of IL6 activity. -
Tissue specificity
Isoform 2 is expressed in peripheral blood mononuclear cells and weakly found in urine and serum. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the type I cytokine receptor family. Type 3 subfamily.
Contains 1 fibronectin type-III domain.
Contains 1 Ig-like C2-type (immunoglobulin-like) domain. -
Domain
The two fibronectin type-III-like domains, contained in the N-terminal part, form together a cytokine-binding domain.
The WSXWS motif appears to be necessary for proper protein folding and thereby efficient intracellular transport and cell-surface receptor binding. -
Post-translational
modificationsA short soluble form may also be released from the membrane by proteolysis. -
Cellular localization
Secreted and Basolateral cell membrane. - Information by UniProt
