Bovine IFNAR1(Interferon alpha/beta receptor 1) ELISA Kit

Protein function: Component of the receptor for type I interferons, including interferons alpha, IFNB1 and IFNW1 (PubMed:8318540). Functions in general as heterodimer with IFNAR2. Type I interferon binding activates the JAK-STAT signaling cascade, and triggers tyrosine phosphorylation of a number of proteins including JAKs, TYK2, STAT proteins and the IFNR alpha- and beta-subunits themselves. Can form an active IFNB1 receptor by itself and activate a signaling cascade that does not involve activation of the JAK-STAT pathway. [The UniProt Consortium]
