Interleukin-6 family cytokines have been implicated in adaptive and innate immunity, hematopoiesis, and inflammation. This cytokine family shares a signal-transducing receptor subunit called gp130. gp130(F759/F759) knockin mice carry a point mutation at the SHP2-binding site of gp130 due to the replacement of tyrosine-759 (Y759 for human gp130) with phenylalanine (F). To explore the effect of this point mutation...
