Human MICB Gene, Full-length cDNA Clone in Lentivector, Endotoxin-free DNA

Description

MICA is the highly polymorphic major histocompatability complex class I chain-related protein A. MICA is a single pass type I transmembrane glycoprotein that belongs to the MIC subfamily of MHC-I family of Immunoglobulin superfamily (IgSF). MICA contains 1 Ig-like C1-type motifs (1 IgC1) in the extracellular domain (ECD) in addition to a transmembrane (TM) domain and a cytoplasmic tail. MICA is expressed on the cell surface, although unlike canonical class I molecules it does not seem to associate with beta-2-microglobulin. MICA acts as a ligand for the KLRK1/NKG2-D type II integral membrane protein receptor. Binding to KLRK1 leads to cell lysis.  MICA also functions as a stress-induced antigen that is broadly recognized by intestinal epithelial gamma delta T cells. Variations in this gene have been associated with susceptibility to psoriasis 1 and psoriatic arthritis, and the shedding of MICA-related antibodies and ligands is involved in the progression from monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance to multiple myeloma (MM).

 

 

Gene Symbol: MICB; MIC-B; PERB11.2

 

NCBI Gene ID: 4277

 

Uniprot Entry: Q29980

 

Construct Details: Full length human MICB (isoform 2) gene is subcloned into the Lentiviral expression vector pLTC with an upstream CMV promoter, 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.

 

Vector Type: pLTC (lentiviral expression vector containing a heterologous CMV promoter and with or without a 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: 1023 (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.
