IL13RA2( Human )
interleukin 13 receptor subunit alpha 2
Alias
CD213A2|CT19|IL-13R|IL13BP
The protein encoded by this gene is closely related to Il13RA1, a subuint of the interleukin 13 receptor complex. This protein binds IL13 with high affinity, but lacks cytoplasmic domain, and does not appear to function as a signal mediator. It is reported to play a role in the internalization of IL13.
