Acquiring signalling specificity from the cytokine receptor gp130.

Abstract excerpt

Repeated use of a relatively small number of intracellular signalling molecules specifies tissue- and cell-type-specific responses to pleiotropic-acting growth factors and cytokines. Currently, gaining a better understanding of these mechanisms is a major challenge. The IL-6 family of cytokines shares a common receptor subunit called gp130. Phenotypic comparisons of mice with amino acid knock-in substitutions...
