| Subcellular Location | Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Isoform E- Secreted (Probable) |
| Developmental Stage | NA |
| Similarity | Belongs to the type I cytokine receptor family. Type 2 subfamily. Contains 4 fibronectin type-III domains. Contains 1 Ig-like (immunoglobulin-like) domain. |
| Post Translational Modification | On ligand binding; phosphorylated on two conserved C-terminal tyrosine residues (isoform B only) by JAK2. Tyr-986 is required for complete binding and activation of PTPN11; ERK/FOS activation and; for interaction with SOCS3. Phosphorylation on Tyr-1141 is required for STAT3 binding/activation. |
| Function | Receptor for obesity factor (leptin). On ligand binding; mediates signaling through JAK2/STAT3. Involved in the regulation of fat metabolism and; in a hematopoietic pathway; required for normal lymphopoiesis. May play a role in reproduction. Can also mediate the ERK/FOS signaling pathway. |
