Function

Structure

  • monomer
  • the similarity among the IL-1 precursors suggests that the amino ends of these proteins serve some as yet undefined function
  • belongs to the IL-1 family

Compartment

  • secreted
  • the lack of a specific hydrophobic segment in the precursor suggests that IL-1 is released by damaged cells or is secreted by a mechanism differing from that used for other secretory proteins
