Function
Functions as a cytokine that binds to IL31RA, a membrane-bound signal-transducing subunit of the IL31 receptor complex (heterodimer composed of OSMR and IL31RA). Functionally, IL31 signaling via OSMR/IL31RA is particularly important in skin immunity. Mechanistically, ligand binding to IL31RA, induces heterodimerization with OSMR, activating JAK1 and JAK2 (and to a lesser extent TYK2) associated with the intracellular domains of IL31RA and OSMR.
