Osmr Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables cytokine binding activity and oncostatin-M receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in oncostatin-M-mediated signaling pathway and positive regulation of cell population proliferation. Predicted to act upstream of or within cell surface receptor signaling pathway. Located in external side of plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including cardiovascular system; choroid plexus; hemolymphoid system; lung; and skeletal system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in primary localized cutaneous amyloidosis 1. Orthologous to human OSMR (oncostatin M receptor). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Osmr often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
