Description

HVEM (herpesvirus entry mediator), also referred to as CD270, TR2 and ATAR, is a single-pass, type I transmembrane glycoprotein in the TNF receptor superfamily (TNFRSF14). HVEM is widely expressed, with the highest expression in lung, spleen and thymus. It is found in peripheral blood T cells, B cells, monocytes and in various tissues enriched in lymphoid cells. The extracellular domain (ECD) of HVEM contains three cysteinerich repeats characteristic of TNF receptor superfamily members. The ECD of HVEM interacts directly with the herpes simplex virus (HSV) envelope glycoprotein D, contributing partly to HSV entry mechanism. The short cytoplasmic region of HVEM lacks a death domain, but contains a TRAF interaction motif for recruiting TRAFs and transducing signaling pathways that activate inflammatory and inhibitory T-cell immune responses. Two TNF superfamily ligands lymphotoxin-α (also known as TNF-β) and LIGHT (TNFSF14) are identified as cellular ligands for HVEM. Both ligands initiate the positive signaling activities. However, recent studies have also revealed that HVEM may be involved in the inhibitory pathway for T cells through serving as a receptor for BTLA (B and T lymphocyte attenuator) or CD272.

Gene Symbol: TNFRSF14; CD270; TR2; ATAR; HVEA; LIGHTR; UNQ329/PRO509

NCBI Gene ID: 8764

Uniprot Entry: Q92956

Construct Details: Full length human HVEM gene is subcloned into the Lentiviral expression vector pLTC with an upstream CMV promoter and 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.

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.
