    Summary
    Predicted to enable cytokine binding activity and cytokine receptor activity. Acts upstream of or within cellular response to organic substance; inflammatory response to antigenic stimulus; and regulation of interleukin-5 production. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be integral component of membrane. Predicted to be part of receptor complex. Predicted to be active in external side of plasma membrane. Is expressed in early conceptus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in asthma. Orthologous to human IL5RA (interleukin 5 receptor subunit alpha). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
