Abstract excerpt
The granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) receptor (GMR) is composed of two chains that belong to the superfamily of cytokine receptors typified by the growth hormone receptor. A common structural element found in cytokine receptors is a module of two fibronectin-like domains, each characterized by seven beta-strands denoted A-G and A'-G', respectively. The alpha-chain (GMRalpha) confers low...
