Receptors, Interleukin-1 Type II
An interleukin-1 receptor subtype that competes with the INTERLEUKIN-1 RECEPTOR TYPE I for binding to INTERLEUKIN-1ALPHA and INTERLEUKIN-1BETA. The interleukin-1 type II receptor appears to lack signal transduction capability. Therefore it may act as a decoy receptor that modulates the activity of its ligands. Both membrane-bound and soluble forms of the receptor have been identified.
