Cloning and Expression of the Human Interleukin-6 (BSF-2/IFNβ 2) Receptor
Abstract
Interleukin-6 (IL-6/BSF-2/IFNβ 2) is a multifunctional cytokine that regulates the growth and differentiation of various tissues, and is known particularly for its role in the immune response and acute phase reactions. A complementary DNA encoding the human IL-6 receptor (IL-6-R) has now been isolated. The IL-6-R consists of 468 amino acids, including a signal peptide of ∼19 amino acids and a domain of ∼90 amino acids that is similar to a domain in the immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily. The cytoplasmic domain of ∼82 amino acids lacks a tyrosine/kinase domain, unlike other growth factor receptors.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
