PHYSICAL PROPERTIES

STRUCTURE

motifs/domains	293 AA extracellular domain
	seven potential N-linked glycosylation sites
	conserved IL17R region, a SEFIR domain, lacking certain elements found in prototypical TIR domains, potentially explaining why they do not engage TIR-containing adaptors (Gaffen 2009), and an extended SEFIR domain is required for IL17RA-mediated signal transduction
	TILL domain seems to be unique to IL17RA, perhaps explaining why IL17RA functions as a common subunit shared by several receptors in the family (Gaffen 2009)

basic FUNCTION	involved in IL17-induced signaling
	with IL17A, activates genes typical of innate immune cytokines, such as TNFalpha and IL-1beta, despite minimal sequence similarity in their respective receptors (Maitra 2007)
	could be analogous to shared cytokine receptor subunits, such as IL6ST, which is a common signal transducer for molecules of the IL-6 family (Gaffen 2009)
	functional roles for both IL17RB and IL17RA in mediating IL25-induced activities (Rickel 2008)
	role of IL17RA-independent mechanisms in causing autoimmunity and its regulation by TGF-beta
	exhibits signaling properties that are nonredundant with other IL17R family members
	IL17A/IL17RA axis increases aortic arch inflammation during atherogenesis through the induction of aortic chemokines, and the acceleration of neutrophil and monocyte recruitment to this site
	IL17RA signal seems to be protective against infection-induced periapical inflammation and bone destruction via suppression of neutrophil and mononuclear inflammation
	IL17A signaling via IL17RA contributes to the inflammatory host response by inducing recruitment of innate immune cells, but also plays a role in homeostatic neutrophilic granulocyte regulation
	IL17RA appears to be a novel modulator of monocyte phenotype and possible therapeutic target in renal fibrosis
	TLR signaling can directly stimulate the expression of IL17RA, in neuroglial cells, which functionally respond to IL17A by secreting chemokines, accelerating CD4 cell migration, and contributing to the pathogenesis of encephalomyelitis
	IL17RA signals directly within transformed colonic epithelial cells (enterocytes) to promote early tumor development
	expression of IL17RA plays an important role in gastric cancer progression, migration and prognosis
	protective role for IL17RA signaling in regulation of the skin barrier and maintenance of skin immune homeostasis
