OverviewNCBI Gene

The protein encoded by this gene is a cytokine receptor. This receptor specifically binds to IL17B and IL17E, but does not bind to IL17 and IL17C. This receptor has been shown to mediate the activation of NF-kappaB and the production of IL8 induced by IL17E. The expression of the rat counterpart of this gene was found to be significantly up-regulated during intestinal inflammation, which suggested the immunoregulatory activity of this receptor.

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against IL17RB can act on the native protein depends on physical access: surface and secreted proteins are reachable by circulating antibodies, intracellular proteins usually are not.

Genetic constraint and essentialitygnomAD · DepMap

Does the body need this protein intact? Low LOEUF or a strong DepMap dependency means loss or blockade of the protein is likely to be felt.

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads IL17RB as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against IL17RB could matter depends on whether native IL17RB is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

IL17RB is annotated at the cell surface, where native IL17RB is exposed to circulating antibodies and is a prime autoantibody target that could block, deplete, or overstimulate it.

Annotation status

The present source text does not explicitly label IL17RB as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
