ID CNTFR_CANFA Reviewed; 372 AA. AC Q71DR4; DT 26-APR-2005, integrated into UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot. DT 05-JUL-2004, sequence version 1. DT 15-JUN-2010, entry version 51. DE RecName: Full=Ciliary neurotrophic factor receptor subunit alpha; DE Short=CNTF receptor subunit alpha; DE Short=CNTFR-alpha; DE Flags: Precursor; GN Name=CNTFR; OS Canis familiaris (Dog) (Canis lupus familiaris). OC Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; OC Mammalia; Eutheria; Laurasiatheria; Carnivora; Caniformia; Canidae; OC Canis. OX NCBI_TaxID=9615; RN [1] RP NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCE [MRNA], AND TISSUE SPECIFICITY. RX MEDLINE=22765531; PubMed=12882818; DOI=10.1167/iovs.02-0763; RA Beltran W.A., Zhang Q., Kijas J.W., Gu D., Rohrer H., Jordan J.A., RA Aguirre G.D.; RT "Cloning, mapping, and retinal expression of the canine ciliary RT neurotrophic factor receptor alpha (CNTFRalpha)."; RL Invest. Ophthalmol. Vis. Sci. 44:3642-3649(2003). CC -!- FUNCTION: Binds to CNTF. The alpha subunit provides the receptor CC specificity (By similarity). CC -!- SUBUNIT: Heterotrimer of the alpha subunit, LIFR and IL6ST (By CC similarity). CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane; Lipid-anchor, GPI-anchor (By CC similarity). CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in retina, brain, spleen, lung, CC liver and kidney. In the retina it is highly expressed by CC photoreceptors, but also found in the RPE, inner nuclear layer and CC ganglion cells. CC -!- DOMAIN: The WSXWS motif appears to be necessary for proper protein CC folding and thereby efficient intracellular transport and cell- CC surface receptor binding (By similarity). CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the type I cytokine receptor family. Type 3 CC subfamily. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Contains 2 fibronectin type-III domains. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Contains 1 Ig-like C2-type (immunoglobulin-like) CC domain.
