Human CD98/SLC3A2 Full-length Gene in Lentivector, Endotoxin-free DNA
CD98, also known as 4F2, MDU1 and SLC3A2, is a single-pass type II transmembrane protein belonging to the SLC3A (solute carrier family 3A) transporter family. CD98 is expressed ubiquitously in all tissues with highest levels detected in kidney, placenta and testis and weakest level in thymus. As a common heavy chain, CD98 is required for the function of light chain amino-acid transporters (LAT) in sodium-independent transport of large neutral amino acids such as phenylalanine, tyrosine, leucine, arginine and tryptophan. The transporter exists as a disulfide-linked heterodimer of CD98 with one of several light chains (SLC7A5, SLC7A6, SLCA7A7, SLC7A8, SLC7A10 or SLCA7A11). CD98 plays an important role in nitric oxide synthesis in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) via transport of L-arginine. CD98 is also involved in the transport of L-DOPA across the blood-brain barrier, and thyroid hormones across the cell membrane in tissues such as placenta. CD98 is located selectively at cell-cell adhesion site. CD98 constitutively and specifically associates with beta-1 integrins, including alpha-2/beta-1, alpha-3/beta-1, alpha-5/beta-1 and alpha-6/beta-1. CD98 may help target LAT1 and LAT2 to the plasma membrane and regulate the transport activity.
Gene Symbol: CD98; 4F2; SLC3A2; MDU1; 4F2HC; 4T2HC; NACAE; CD98HC
NCBI Gene ID: 6520
Uniprot Entry: P08195
Construct Details: Full length human CD98 gene (encoding UniProt Accession # P08195 - isoform 2) 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, 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)

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’-CGGGAAGCAATAGCATGATA-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.
