The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the type I cytokine receptor family. This receptor, with homology to gp130, is expressed on monocytes, and is involved in IL-31 signaling via activation of STAT-3 and STAT-5. It functions either as a monomer, or as part of a receptor complex with oncostatin M receptor (OSMR). Several alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been noted for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Jun 2011],

Function:Associates with OSMR to form the interleukin-31 receptor which activates STAT3 and to a lower extent STAT1 and STAT5. May function in skin immunity.,induction:Up-regulated in lesional keratinocytes of patients with atopic dermatitis. Up-regulated by IFNG and lipopolysaccharides.,PTM:N-glycosylated.,similarity:Belongs to the type I cytokine receptor family. Type 2 subfamily.,similarity:Contains 5 fibronectin type-III domains.,subunit:Heterodimer with OSMR. Interacts with JAK1 and STAT3.,tissue specificity:Expressed at low levels in testis, ovary, brain, prostate, placenta, thymus, bone marrow, trachea and skin. Detected in all of the myelomonocytic lineage. Expressed in CD14-and CD56-positive blood cells and by macrophages (at protein level).,
