Rabbit Anti-IL-7RA (Interleukin-7 Receptor Subunit alpha, IL-7 Receptor Subunit alpha, IL-7R Subunit alpha, IL-7R-alpha, CD127, CDw127, IL7R)
Interleukin 7 Receptor (IL7R) is a receptor for interleukin 7 (IL7). The function of IL7R requires the interleukin 2 receptor, gamma chain (IL2RG), which is a common gamma chain shared by the receptors of various cytokines, including interleukine 2, 4, 7, 9, and 15. This protein has been shown to play a critical role in the V(D)J recombination during lymphocyte development. This protein is also found to control the accessibility of the TCR gamma locus by STAT5 and histone acetylation. Knockout studies in mice suggested that blocking apoptosis is an essential function of this protein during differentiation and activation of T lymphocytes. The functional defects in this protein may be associated with the pathogenesis of the severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID).
