[5][6][7] Interleukin 1 induces synthesis of acute phase and proinflammatory proteins during infection, tissue damage, or stress, by forming a complex at the cell membrane with an interleukin 1 receptor and an accessory protein.
This gene encodes an interleukin 1 receptor accessory protein.
Alternative splicing of this gene results in two transcript variants encoding two different isoforms, one membrane-bound and one soluble.
[7] IL1RAP has been shown to interact with TOLLIP[8] and Interleukin 1 receptor, type I.
