LEPR

Leptin receptor (LEPR, OB-R) is a type I cytokine receptor family protein with significant amino acid sequence identity with gp130, G-CSF receptor, and LIF receptor. The transcript was reported to be expressed predominantly in regions of the hypothalamus previously thought to be important in body weight regulation. OB-R binds leptin with high affinity and is a potent leptin antagonist.

Single cell type specificity

Cell type enhanced (Hepatocytes, Microglial cells, Adipocytes, Fibroblasts, Endothelial cells, Langerhans cells)

Immune cell specificity

Immune cell enhanced (basophil)

Cell line specificity

Cell line enhanced (K-562, RPTEC TERT1)

Interaction

Present as a mixture of monomers and dimers (Probable). The phosphorylated receptor binds a number of SH2 domain-containing proteins such as JAK2, STAT3, PTPN11, and SOCS3 (By similarity) (PubMed:9600917). Interaction with SOCS3 inhibits JAK/STAT signaling and MAPK cascade (By similarity).
