PRLR (prolactin receptor) is a single pass type I transmembrane glycoprotein of the type I cytokine receptor family (type 1 subfamily). PRLR consists of a 210 amino acid (aa) extracellular region with 2 fibronectin type III (FN3) domains and a juxtamembrane WSXWS motif, a transmembrane domain, and a 364 aa cytoplasmic region with a Box 1 motif.  The WSXWS motif may be necessary for proper protein folding and efficient intracellular transport and cell-surface receptor binding.  The box 1 motif is required for JAK interaction/activation.  PRLR is a receptor for the anterior pituitary hormone prolactin (PRL). Prolactin-dependent signaling occurs as the result of ligand-induced dimerization of PRLR. PRLR acts as a prosurvival factor for spermatozoa by inhibiting sperm capacitation through suppression of SRC kinase activation and stimulation of AKT.  Several alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different membrane-bound and soluble isoforms of PRLR exist and may function to modulate the endocrine and autocrine effects of prolactin in normal tissue and cancer.

Product Details

 

Gene Symbol: PRLR; HPRL; MFAB; hPRLrI

 

NCBI Gene ID: 5618

 

Uniprot Entry: P16471

 

Construct Details: Full length human PRLR 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: 1869 (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.
