A synthetic peptide for use as a blocking control in assays to test for specificity of IL11 RA antibody, Alternative Names: IL11R alpha control peptide, IL11R alpha antibody Blocking Peptide, Anti-IL11R alpha Blocking Peptide, Interleukin 11 Receptor Alpha Blocking Peptide, MGC2146 Blocking Peptide, IL11RA Blocking Peptide, IL11, IL-11, IL 11, IL-11 Blocking Peptide, IL 11 Blocking Peptide
Interleukin 11 is a stromal cell-derived cytokine that belongs to a family of pleiotropic and redundant cytokines that use the gp130 transducing subunit in their high affinity receptors. IL11RA is the IL-11 receptor, which is a member of the hematopoietic cytokine receptor family. This particular receptor is very similar to ciliary neurotrophic factor, since both contain an extracellular region with a 2-domain structure composed of an immunoglobulin-like domain and a cytokine receptor-like domain.
