Background: IL-17 RC

IL-17 receptor C (IL-17RC; also known as IL-17RL and IL-17Rhom) is an 85-110 kDa member of the IL-17 receptor family. IL-17 plays a key role in the development of autoimmunity and inflammation (1, 2). Human IL-17 RC is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein that is expressed on neutrophils, endothelial cells, chondrocytes and osteoblasts, breast and prostatic epithelium, fibroblasts, renal tubular epithelium, and skeletal muscle cells (3-5). Mature human IL-17 RC consists of a 518 amino acid (aa) extracellular domain (ECD), a 21 aa transmembrane segment, and a 232 aa cytoplasmic region (6). It is estimated that there are over 90 alternative splice forms, with transmembrane-containing isoforms predominating (4, 7). This recombinant protein corresponds to IL-17 RC isoform 1, the canonical form. Within the ECD, IL-17 RC isoform 1 shares 69% aa sequence identity with mouse IL-17 RC. IL-17 RC is the cognate receptor for IL-17F, and it binds IL-17A with similar affinity (8). IL-17 RC associates wiith IL-17 RA to form a receptor complex for both IL-17A and IL-17F (8-11).
