Summary

IL23R (interleukin 23 receptor, HGNC:19100) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 1p31.3, encoding Interleukin-23 receptor (Q5VWK5). Associates with IL12RB1 to form the interleukin-23 receptor.

The protein encoded by this gene is a subunit of the receptor for IL23A/IL23. This protein pairs with the receptor molecule IL12RB1/IL12Rbeta1, and both are required for IL23A signaling. This protein associates constitutively with Janus kinase 2 (JAK2), and also binds to transcription activator STAT3 in a ligand-dependent manner.

Function. Associates with IL12RB1 to form the interleukin-23 receptor. Binds IL23 and mediates T-cells, NK cells and possibly certain macrophage/myeloid cells stimulation probably through activation of the Jak-Stat signaling cascade. IL23 functions in innate and adaptive immunity and may participate in acute response to infection in peripheral tissues. IL23 may be responsible for autoimmune inflammatory diseases and be important for tumorigenesis.

Subunit / interactions. Heterodimer with IL12RB1. In presence of IL23, the heterodimer forms the IL23 receptor. Interacts with JAK2 and in presence of IL23 with STAT3.

Subcellular location. Cell membrane.

Tissue specificity. Expressed by monocytes, Th1, Th0, NK and dendritic cells. Isoform 1 is specifically expressed in NK cells.

Post-translational modifications. Phosphorylated in response to IL23.

Disease relevance. Inflammatory bowel disease 17 (IBD17) [MIM:612261] A chronic, relapsing inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract with a complex etiology. It is subdivided into Crohn disease and ulcerative colitis phenotypes. Crohn disease may affect any part of the gastrointestinal tract from the mouth to the anus, but most frequently it involves the terminal ileum and colon. Bowel inflammation is transmural and discontinuous; it may contain granulomas or be associated with intestinal or perianal fistulas. In contrast, in ulcerative colitis, the inflammation is continuous and limited to rectal and colonic mucosal layers; fistulas and granulomas are not observed. Both diseases include extraintestinal inflammation of the skin, eyes, or joints. Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Miscellaneous. Produced by translation in an alternate frame of the cDNA encoding isoform 4. Produced by translation in an alternate frame of the cDNA encoding isoform 5. Produced by translation in an alternate frame of the cDNA encoding isoform 2. Produced by translation in an alternate frame of the cDNA encoding isoform 3.

Similarity. Belongs to the type I cytokine receptor family. Type 2 subfamily.
