PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
STRUCTURE
motifs/domains
  • two cytokine receptor-like domains each with a pair of cysteines
  • a conserved WSXWS motif necessary for proper protein folding
  • a large cytoplasmic tail containing a motif of 8 residues, targeting the normally recycling receptor toward degradation
  • a box 1 motif required for JAK interaction and/or activation
  • a fibronectin type-III domain
    • mono polymer dimer
