LRPPRC

HGNC ID: 15714

Target Abstract:

Glycoprotein 130 (also known as gp130, IL6ST, IL6-beta, or CD130) is a signaling receptor element shared by the cytokine IL-6 family of functional receptor complexes and belongs to the class I cytokine receptor family. The protein encoded by this gene is a signal transducer shared by several cytokines, including interleukin 6 (IL6), ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF), leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF), and oncosuppressor M (OSM), and the activation of this protein is dependent on the binding of the cytokine to its receptors.IL-6 or IL-11 binds to membrane-anchored or soluble IL-6r or IL- respectively 11r binding, which initiates the binding of IL-6r (IL-11r) to gp130. For other IL-6 family cytokines, such as LIF and OSM, signaling is similarly activated by the heterodimerization of gp130 with LIF R or OSM R. Knockout studies in mice have shown that the gene encoding this protein plays a key role in the regulation of cardiomyocyte apoptosis.

Human LRPPRC Predicted Functions

Enables beta-tubulin binding activity and ubiquitin protein ligase binding activity. Predicted to be involved in mitochondrion transport along microtubule. Predicted to act upstream of or within negative regulation of mitochondrial RNA catabolic process and regulation of mitochondrial translation. Located in several cellular components, including condensed nuclear chromosome; mitochondrial nucleoid; and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Colocalizes with mitochondrion. Implicated in French Canadian Leigh disease and Leigh disease.
