PAQR11 (progestin and adipoQ receptor family member 11) or MMD (Monocyte to macrophage differentiation factor) is a member of the ADIPOR/PAQR family of 7-pass transmembrane (7-TM) proteins.  Contrary to G-protein coupled 7-TM receptors, the N-terminus of ADIPOR family member is cytoplasmic and the C-terminus is extracellular.  Members of the PAQR family are evolutionarily conserved with significant sequence identity to bacterial hemolysin-like proteins. PAQR11 exhibits relatively ubiquitous expression with preferential expression in mature macrophages. PARQ11 may be involved in the dynamics of lysosomal membranes associated with microglial activation following brain lesion. PAQR11 has not been positively identified as a receptor. A suggested alternative function is that of an ion channel protein in maturing macrophages.

Product Details

 

Gene Symbol: PAQR11; MMD; MMA; MMD1

 

NCBI Gene ID: 23531

 

UniProt Entry: Q15546

 

Construct Details: Full length human PAQR11 gene is subcloned into the Lentiviral expression vector pLTC with an upstream CMV promoter and with or without a selection marker, which can be used for both transient and stable expression in mammalian cells.  It can be co-transfected with the LentiPAK DNA mix (SKU# LP-001) into HEK293 cells to produce high titer lentiviral particles. Multiple choices of a stable antibiotic selection marker are available.

 

Vector Type: pLTC or pLTC-IRES-Marker (lentiviral expression vector containing a heterologous CMV promoter +/- a selection marker, see the vector map above)

 

Formulation: Supplied with 10 μg of endotoxin-free plasmid DNA at 200 ng/μl in sterile TE buffer (pH8.0)

 

Gene Insert Size: 717 (bp)

Primers: Gene insert coding sequence can be confirmed by following primers:

(a) forward (or 5'-end) primer: 5’-CAAATGGGCGGTAGGCGTG-3’;

(b) reverse (or 3'-end) primer: 5’-CCAGGTTTCCGGGCCCTCAC-3’

 

 

Note: The sequence may vary due to the naturally occurring variants or mutations, such as single nucleotide polymorphism, or the artifact during PCR amplification.  High fidelity PCR systems should always be used.
