[5][6][7] The protein encoded by this gene is a cytokine receptor.

This receptor has been shown to mediate the activation of NF-κB and the production of IL8 induced by IL17E.

The expression of the rat counterpart of this gene was found to be significantly up-regulated during intestinal inflammation, which suggested the immunoregulatory activity of this receptor.
