Other Information

**Key characteristics:** - The IL7R gene is located on chromosome 2. - It is a single gene with a length of approximately 27,000 base pairs. - The IL7R protein is a glycoprotein with a molecular weight of approximately 140 kDa. - It is a transmembrane protein that is expressed on the surface of immune cells. **Pathways and functions:** - The IL7R gene is involved in a variety of immune pathways, including antigen binding, B cell homeostasis, cargo recognition for clathrin-mediated endocytosis, cell morphogenesis, clathrin-mediated endocytosis, cytokine receptor activity, cytokine signaling in the immune system, immune response, and T cell mediated cytotoxicity. **Clinical significance:** - Mutations in the IL7R gene have been linked to a number of human diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, and cancer. - Dysregulation of the IL7R signaling pathway has been implicated in the pathogenesis of these diseases. - Therefore, targeting the IL7R signaling pathway is a promising strategy for the treatment of these diseases.
