IL1R is a member of the interleukin 1 receptor family. An experiment with transient gene expression demonstrated that this receptor was incapable of binding to interleukin 1 alpha and interleukin 1 beta with high affinity. IL1R is a receptor for interleukin 1 family member 9 (IL1F9). Binding to the agonist leads to the activation of NF-kappa-B. The gene for this protein and four other interleukin 1 receptor family genes, including interleukin 1 receptor, type I (IL1R1), interleukin 1 receptor, type II (IL1R2), interleukin 1 receptor-like 1 (IL1RL1), and interleukin 18 receptor 1 (IL18R1), form a cytokine receptor gene cluster in a region mapped to chromosome 2q12.

Titration of the IL1R1 antibody may be required due to differences in protocols and secondary/substrate sensitivity.

A portion of amino acids 474-503 from human IL-1 Receptor type 1 was used as the immunogen for this IL1R1 antibody.

Aliquot the IL1R1 antibody and store frozen at -20oC or colder.Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
