IL-6 activates intracellular signaling through binding a receptor consisting of an 80kDa ligand-binding protein (IL-6R) and a second protein of 130 kDa.
IL-6 first binds to IL-6R which subsequently associates with a gp130 dimer.
The active signaling complex consists of at minimum IL-6, IL-6R and a dimer of two gp130 proteins that are linked by a disulfide bond.
A soluble form of IL-6R is generated by proteolytic cleavage of the membrane-bound precursor and can function as an agonistic molecule that can actively participate in cell-tocell signaling.
The second subunit of the IL-6 complex, gp130, also functions as a component of several additional receptor complexes including leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF), oncostatin M (OSM), ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) and IL-11.
LIF binds to the LIF receptor with low affinity and to a complex of the LIF receptor and gp130 with high affinity, while OSM appears to bind to gp130 with low affinity and to a complex of gp130 and the LIF receptor with high affinity.
