Protocol Available protocols: Western Blotting, Immunoprecipitation Specificity / Sensitivity IL-6R alpha/CD126 (E7H4J) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody recognizes endogenous levels of total IL-6Rα/CD126 protein. This antibody cross-reacts with an unidentified protein of 20 kDa in some cell extracts. Species Reactivity: Mouse Source / Purification Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with recombinant protein specific to the amino terminus of mouse IL-6Rα/CD126 protein. Background The IL-6 receptor is a heterodimeric complex that consists of a ligand-binding IL-6 receptor α (IL-6Rα) subunit and a signaling component, gp130 (1). Binding of IL-6 to IL-6Rα results in receptor dimerization with gp130 and subsequent STAT3 activation (1). IL-6Rα is cleaved from the cell surface by ADAM17 (1,2). In humans, soluble IL-6Rα is also generated via alternatively spliced mRNA (1,3). Soluble IL-6Rα binds to IL-6 and can stimulate signaling via membrane bound gp130 in a process known as "trans-signaling" (1). It is through trans-signaling that IL-6 stimulates cells that do not express membrane bound IL-6Rα (1).
