Human interleukin 4 receptor alpha (IL-4Rα) is a Type I transmembrane and a Type I cytokine receptor. The recombinant IL-4Rα protein dimer (CSP-25219-01) is a cis-homodimer (cis-dimer) and contains a IL-4Rα extracellular domain (UniProt# P24394, amino acids Met26-His232) fused with a proprietary cis-dimer motif followed by a His tag at the C-terminus. This dimeric protein is expressed in HEK293T cells. The recombinant human IL-4Rα protein dimer is bioactive and can bind to interleukin 4 (IL-4). It also binds IL-4Rα-specific antibodies. This IL-4Rα protein dimer can be used as an antigen for in vitro assays and antibody screening, and as an immunogen for immunization to generate antibodies targeting more conformational epitopes.

Background
Human interleukin 4 receptor alpha (IL-4Rα) is a Type I transmembrane and a Type I cytokine receptor. IL-4Rα is also known as cluster of differentiation 124 (CD124). IL-4Rα is a key component in interleukin 4 (IL-4) and IL-13 cytokine signaling involved in immune regulation, particularly in Th2 immune responses, allergy, and asthma. IL-4Rα contains an extracellular domain with an overall L shape organized in two covalently linked domains: an h-type immunoglobulin fold (D1) and a standard fibronectin type III (FN III)–like topology (D2). IL-4Rα can bind IL-4 and IL-13 and allergic inflammation is largely driven by IL-4 and IL-13 signaling through IL-4Rα, making IL-4Rα a promising therapeutic target for allergic diseases.
