Target Synonym: Poliovirus Receptor;Nectin-Like Protein 5;NECL-5;CD155;PVR;PVS
Target Species: Human
Expression Host: HEK293 Cells
Fusion Tag: C-His
UNIProt ID: P15151
Background: Poliovirus Receptor (PVR) is a 70 kDa type I transmembrane single-span glycoprotein that belongs to the nectin-like (Necl) family and was originally identified based on its ability to mediate the cell attachment and entry of poliovirus (PV); an etiologic agent of the central nervous system disease poliomyelitis. PVR contains three Ig-like extracellular domains; a transmembrane segment; and a cytoplasmic tail. The normal cellular function of PVR maybe the involvement of intercellular adhension between epithelial cells. Alternate splicing of the PVR mRNA yields four different isoforms (α; β; γ; and δ) with identical extracellular domains.
Sequence: Met1-Asn343
Purity: > 95 % as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.
Formulation: Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4. Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween80 are added as protectants before lyophilization. Please refer to the specific buffer information in the printed manual.
Endotoxin: Please contact us for more information.
