Disease-associated variant in IL6ST gene encoding for gp130 led to increased flexibility including motion within the cytokine-binding core (IL-6 and IL-11) and increased distance between extracellular domains nature.com/articles/s4146…

Excited to share our newest full collaboration with @BubeckLab. We provide structural insights that help explain how mutations in gp130 that do not disrupt cytokine binding cause signaling defects and immunodeficiencies in humans. doi.org/10.1038/s41467…, @UoDCellSigImm

Differential functional coupling in Gp130-JAK complexes expands the plasticity of the interleukin-6 signaling axis biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… #bioRxiv


Ever wonder why ancestral cytokine receptors, like Gp130, bind multiple JAKs, and whether the identity of the GP130-JAK complex instructs specific responses? Check our new work, in a full collaboration with the @PiehlerLab, for some answers biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh…
