Product Details

Purification tag / Conjugate: This PIGR protein is labelled with His tag.

Purpose: Recombinant Mouse PIGR Protein (His Tag)(Active)

Sequence: Met 1-Lys 645

Characteristics: A DNA sequence encoding the extracellular domain (Met 1-Lys 645) of mouse PIGR (NP_035212.2) precursor was expressed with a C-terminal polyhistidine tag.

Endotoxin Level: < 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method.

Biological Activity Comment: Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized recombinant mouse PIGR at 5 μg/ml (100 μl/well) can bind mouse IgM with a linear range of 0.156-10 μg/ml.

Target: PIGR (Polymeric Immunoglobulin Receptor (PIGR))

Alternative Name: PIGR

Background:

Background: Polymeric immunoglobulin receptor, also known as PIGR, is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily and a Fc receptor. The ectodomain of this receptor consists of five units with homology to the variable units of immunoglobulins and a transmembrane region, which also has some homology to certain immunoglobulin variable regions. PIGR is expressed on several glandular epithelia including those of liver and breast. The deduced amino-acid sequence has a length of 764 residues and shows an overall similarity of 56% and 64% with the rabbit and rat counterpart. PIGR mediates transcellular transport of polymeric immunoglobulin molecules, and thus facilitates the secretion of IgA and IgM. During this process, a cleavage occurs that separates the extracellular (known as the secretory component) from the transmembrane segment of PIGR.
