Signal-transducing molecule. The receptor systems for IL6, LIF, OSM, CNTF, IL11, CTF1 and BSF3 can utilize gp130 for initiating signal transmission. Binds to IL6/IL6R (alpha chain) complex, resulting in the formation of high-affinity IL6 binding sites, and transduces the signal. Does not bind IL6. May have a role in embryonic development.
Specificity
Natural and recombinant Mouse Interleukin-6 receptor subunit beta
Component of a hexamer of two molecules each of IL6, IL6R and IL6ST (By similarity). Forms heterodimers composed of LIPR and IL6ST (type I OSM receptor). Also forms heterodimers composed of OSMR and IL6ST (type II OSM receptor). Interacts with INPP5D/SHIP1.
