Description
Interleukin-5 belongs to the family of cytokines, which includes IL-3 and GM-CSF. It signals through a receptor complex comprising of an IL-5 receptor alpha subunit (IL5RA), and a common beta chain which is shared between all members of this cytokine family. Binding of IL-5 to IL5RA recruits the beta chain to the complex, this then activates the JAK/STAT and Raf/MAPK signaling modules.
