Hormone_1 | pfam00103 | Somatotropin hormone family. | EpoR_lig-bind | pfam09067 | Erythropoietin receptor, ligand binding. Members of this family interact with erythropoietin (EPO), with subsequent initiation of the downstream chain of events associated with binding of EPO to the receptor, including EPO-induced erythroblast proliferation and differentiation through induction of the JAK2/STAT5 signaling cascade. The domain adopts a secondary structure composed of a short amino-terminal helix, followed by two beta-sandwich regions. | IL6Ra-bind | pfam09240 | Interleukin-6 receptor alpha chain, binding. Members of this family adopt a structure consisting of an immunoglobulin-like beta-sandwich, with seven strands in two beta-sheets, in a Greek-key topology. They are required for binding to the cytokine Interleukin-6. | IL6 | smart00126 | Interleukin-6/G-CSF/MGF family. | EPO_TPO | pfam00758 | Erythropoietin/thrombopoietin. | Lectin_C | pfam00059 | Lectin C-type domain. This family includes both long and short form C-type | LIF_OSM | smart00080 | LIF / OSM family. | IL12 | pfam03039 | Interleukin-12 alpha subunit. Interleukin 12 (IL-12) is a disulphide-bonded heterodimer consisting of a 35kDa alpha subunit and a 40kDa beta subunit. It is involved in the stimulation and maintenance of Th1 cellular immune responses, including the normal host defence against various intracellular pathogens, such as Leishmania, Toxoplasma, measles virus and HIV. IL-12 also has an important role in pathological Th1 responses, such as in inflammatory bowel disease and multiple sclerosis. Suppression of IL-12 activity in such diseases may have therapeutic benefit. On the other hand, administration of recombinant IL-12 may have therapeutic benefit in conditions associated with pathological Th2 responses. | ig | pfam00047 | Immunoglobulin domain. Ig: immunoglobulin (Ig) domain found in the Ig superfamily. The Ig superfamily is a heterogenous group of proteins, built on a common fold comprised of a sandwich of two beta sheets. Members of this group are components of immunoglobulin, neuroglia, cell surface glycoproteins, such as, T-cell receptors, CD2, CD4, CD8, and membrane glycoproteins, such as, butyrophilin and chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan core protein. A predominant feature of most Ig domains is a disulfide bridge connecting the two beta-sheets with a tryptophan residue packed against the disulfide bond. | I-set | pfam07679 | Immunoglobulin I-set domain. |
