Relevance : Interleukin 15 Receptor alpha (IL-15R?) is a transmembrane glycoprotein that plays a pleiotropic role in immune development and function, including the positive maintenance of lymphocyte homeostasis. IL-15R? chain can bind soluble IL-15 and transpresent cytokine to the cells, allowing them to respond to IL-15. Soluble IL-15R? can function as a specific high-affinity IL-15 antagonist. The soluble IL-15/IL-15R? complexes exhibit a strong agonistic activity which is mediated through membrane-bound IL-15 receptor ? and ? heterodimers and enables signaling to cells.
Function : High-affinity receptor for interleukin-15. Can signal both in cis and trans where IL15R from one subset of cells presents IL15 to neighboring IL2RG-expressing cells. Expression of different isoforms may alter or interfere with signal transduction. Isoform 5, isoform 6, isoform 7 and isoform 8 do not bind IL15. Signal transduction involves SYK.

Protein Families :
Tissue Specificity : Isoform 1, isoform 3, isoform 4, isoform 5, isoform 6, isoform 7, isoform 8 and isoform 9 are widely expressed. Expressed in fetal brain with higher expression in the hippocampus and cerebellum than in cortex and thalamus. Higher levels of soluble sIL-15RA form in comparison with membrane-bound forms is present in all brain structures.
