motifs/domains
  • a ligand binding domain
  • three Ig-like domain
  • a single transmembrane domain
  • a short cytoplasmic domain lacking the Drosophila Toll signal (see IL1R1)

    basic FUNCTION
  • molecular decoy that traps interleukin-1beta (IL1B) and does not initiate subsequent signaling events, thereby suppressing an inflammatory response (Vambutas 2009)

    constitutional     --over  
    appears to be a protective mechanism in hearing homeostasis (Vambutas 2009)
    constitutional     --over  
    results in changes in cell morphology, actin rearrangement, and promoted cell migration, through activation of the pre-interleukin 1alpha pathway (Chang 2009)
    Susceptibility to ankylosing spondylitis
    Variant & Polymorphism
    Candidate gene may be a specific biomarker for Autoimmune Inner Ear Disease (AIED) (Vambutas 2009)
    Marker
    Therapy target can neutralize IL1 beta and counteract its effect on endometrial stromal cells, and may provide a new clinical strategy for the treatment of endometriosis (Hou 2008)
