KLRC2 belongs to the killer cell lectin-like receptor (KLR) or NKG2 family of the C-type lectin superfamily, which is a group of single pass type II transmembrane proteins preferentially expressed in natural killer (NK) cells.  NK cells are lymphocytes that can mediate lysis of certain tumor cells and virus-infected cells without previous activation. NK cells regulate specific humoral and cell-mediated immunity. The genes of NKG2 family members form a killer cell lectin-like receptor gene cluster on chromosome 12.  The KLR/NKG2 family is characterized by the presence of a C-type lectin domain in the extracellular region at the C-terminus. KLRC2 forms a disulfide-bond linked heterocomplex with another family member, KLRD1/CD94, and plays a role as a receptor for the recognition of MHC class I HLA-E molecules by NK cells and some cytotoxic T-cells.

Product Details

 

Gene Symbol: KLRC2; NKG2C; CD159c; NKG2-C

 

NCBI Gene ID: 3822

 

Uniprot Entry: P26717

 

Construct Details: Full length human KLRC2 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: 696 (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.
