Enables signaling receptor binding activity. Involved in defense response to fungus; granulocyte chemotaxis; and positive regulation of interleukin-6 production. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of cytokine production involved in inflammatory response. Located in cell surface and plasma membrane. Is expressed in hip; sensory organ; and skeleton. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis. Orthologous to human IL17RC (interleukin 17 receptor C). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
