Human MSR1/SRA/SCARA1/phSR1/CD204 Gene, Full-length cDNA Clone in Lentivector, Endotoxin-free DNA
MSR1 (macrophage scavenger receptor 1), also known as CD204 and SCARA1 (scavenger receptor class A member 1), is a single-pass, type II membrane protein. It belongs to an expanding family of transmembrane molecules collectively referred to as scavenger receptors. Receptors of this family bind to a series of negativelycharged/polyanionic ligands. They recognize and internalize modified low density lipoproteins (LDLs) in the removal of many foreign substances and waste materials in the living body. Scavenger receptors can be categorized into 3 classes, and MSR1 is the class A receptors with 3 different types generated by alternative splicing. The extracellular region of MSR1 contains an αhelical coiledcoil domain, a collagenlike domain, and a cysteinerich domain (CRD) at the C-terminus. MSR1 is a macrophage-specific trimeric transmembrane glycoprotein involved in many macrophage-associated physiological and pathological processes including atherosclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, and host defense. The isoforms type 1 (MSR-AI or SR-AI) and type 2 (MSR-AII or SR-AII) are functional receptors, which mediate the endocytosis of modified LDLs. The isoform type 3 (MSR-AIII or SR-AIII) does not internalize modified LDLs. It has an altered intracellular processing and is trapped within the endoplasmic reticulum. Thus the isoform type 3 can inhibit the function of isoforms type 1 and type 2 when co-expressed, indicating a dominant negative effect. MSR1 may also play important roles in macrophage growth, cell adhesion, and osteoclast differentiation.
Gene Symbol: MSR1; SRA; SR-A; CD204; phSR1; phSR2; SCARA1
NCBI Gene ID: 4481
Uniprot Entry: P21757
Construct Details: Full length human MSR1/CD204 gene (encoding UniProt #P21757) 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, 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: 1356 (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.
