Function

Homodimeric cytokine expressed predominantly by T-lymphocytes and NK cells that plays an important role in the survival, differentiation, and chemotaxis of eosinophils. Also acts on activated and resting B-cells to induce immunoglobulin production, growth, and differentiation. Mechanistically, exerts its biological effects through a receptor composed of IL5RA subunit and the cytokine receptor common subunit beta/CSF2RB.

Biological Context

Subcellular Location: Secreted
Tissue Specificity: Expressed in lymphoid cells, including spleen, thymus, lymph nodes and peripheral blood mononuclear cells

Protein Biology

Function

Homodimeric cytokine expressed predominantly by T-lymphocytes and NK cells that plays an important role in the survival, differentiation, and chemotaxis of eosinophils (PubMed:10444455, PubMed:1873482). Also acts on activated and resting B-cells to induce immunoglobulin production, growth, and differentiation (PubMed:3128631). Mechanistically, exerts its biological effects through a receptor composed of IL5RA subunit and the cytokine receptor common subunit beta/CSF2RB. Binding to the receptor leads to activation of various kinases including LYN, SYK and JAK2 and thereby propagates signals through the RAS-MAPK and JAK-STAT5 pathways respectively (By similarity)

Subcellular Location

Secreted

Tissue Specificity

Expressed in lymphoid cells, including spleen, thymus, lymph nodes and peripheral blood mononuclear cells

Subunit

Homodimer; disulfide-linked. Interacts with IL5RA (PubMed:1873482). Interacts with CSF2RB
