A classification of cytokine receptors based on their three-dimensional structure has been attempted.

Type II cytokine receptors, whose members are receptors mainly for interferons.

Soluble cytokine receptors are extremely common regulators of cytokine function.

After dimerization of the cytokine receptors following ligand binding, the Jaks transphosphorylate each other.

Currently no complete structure of the extracellular domains of a type II cytokine receptor is available.

They are cytosolic tyrosine kinases that are specifically associated with cytokine receptors.

The cytokine receptors can be divided into five major subgroups based on their different domains and activation motifs.

Erythropoietin's activity is initiated when hematopoietic cytokine receptors become activated.

There are two main families of Interleukin receptors, type 1 and type 2 cytokine receptors.

CD117 is a cytokine receptor expressed on the surface of hematopoietic stem cells as well as other cell types.
