该基因编码红细胞生成素受体，红细胞生成素受体是细胞因子受体家族的一员。在促红细胞生成素结合后，该受体激活JAK2酪氨酸激酶，激活不同的细胞内途径，包括：ras/map激酶、磷脂酰肌醇3激酶和stat转录因子。受刺激的促红细胞生成素受体似乎在红细胞存活中起作用。红细胞生成素受体缺陷可导致红白血病和家族性红细胞增多。这种基因的失调可能影响某些肿瘤的生长。交替剪接导致多个转录变体。
This gene encodes the erythropoietin receptor which is a member of the cytokine receptor family. Upon erythropoietin binding, this receptor activates Jak2 tyrosine kinase which activates different intracellular pathways including: Ras/MAP kinase, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and STAT transcription factors. The stimulated erythropoietin receptor appears to have a role in erythroid cell survival. Defects in the erythropoietin receptor may produce erythroleukemia and familial erythrocytosis. Dysregulation of this gene may affect the growth of certain tumors. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
