Human FGFR4 Lentivirus, Full-length Gene in Lentivector, Pre-packaged Lentiviral Particles

Description

FGFR4 (fibroblast growth factor receptor 4), also known as JTK2 and CD334, is a single-pass type I transmembrane protein that belongs to the FGFR subfamily of the receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) family. There are 4 distinct members (FGFR1-4) that differ from one another in their ligand affinities, tissue distribution and biological functions. FGFRs mediate the biological activities of a group of at least 23 structurally related FGFs, including cell growth, differentiation, angiogenesis, wound healing, and tumorigenesis. All 4 FGFR members are composed of a signal peptide, 3 immunoglobulin (Ig)­like domains, an acid­box region, a transmembrane domain and a cytoplasmic tyrosine­kinase domain. FGFR4 is reported to be a high affinity receptor for both acidic and basic fibroblast growth factor, and also binds to FGF8, 15, and 19. FGFR4 associates with β­Klotho and sulfated glycosaminoglycans, and these interactions increase the affinity of FGFR4 for its ligands and its signaling capacity. Growing studies have indicated that FGFR4 plays a role in tumor progression in human cancer.  It plays a role in the regulation of cell proliferation, differentiation and migration, and in regulation of lipid metabolism, bile acid biosynthesis, glucose uptake, vitamin D metabolism and phosphate homeostasis. FGFR4 supports glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity and protects against hyperlipidemia.

 

 

Gene Symbol: FGFR4; CD334; FGFR-4; TKF; JTK2; JTK-2

 

NCBI Gene ID: 2264

 

Uniprot Entry: P22455

 

Construct Details: Full length human FGFR4 gene (encoding Uniprot accession #P22455 - isoform 1) 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)

 

Gene Insert Size: 2409 (bp)
