Gene information for OSMR (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID9180
Official gene symbolOSMR
Full nameoncostatin M receptor
Aliases,MGC150626,MGC150627,MGC75127,OSMRB,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a member of the type I cytokine receptor family. The encoded protein heterodimerizes with interleukin 6 signal transducer to form the type II oncostatin M receptor and with interleukin 31 receptor A to form the interleukin 31 receptor, and thus transduces oncostatin M and interleukin 31 induced signaling events. Mutations in this gene have been associated with familial primary localized cutaneous amyloidosis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
