Immunogen

GST/His-tagged recombinant fragment corresponding to 136 amino acids from the N-terminal, extracellular domain region of human Secretory phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R1).

Application

Anti-PLA2R1, clone 1D5, ZooMAb, Cat. No. ZRB012657, is a recombinant Rabbit Monoclonal antibody that detects Secretory phospholipase A2 receptor and has been tested for use in Immunocytochemistry, Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin), and Western Blotting.

Immunocytochemistry Analysis: A 1:100 dilution from a representative lot detected PLA2R1 in HeLa, A431, HUVEC and NIH 3T3 cells.

Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin) Analysis: A 1:100 dilution from a representative lot detected PLA2R1 in human kidney tissue sections.

Target description

Secretory phospholipase A2 receptor (UniProt: also known as PLA2-R, PLA2R, 180 kDa secretory phospholipase A2 receptor, C-type lectin domain family 13-member C, M-type receptor) is encoded by the PLA2R1 (also known as CLEC13C) gene (Gene ID: 22925) in human. PLA2R is a single-pass type I membrane protein that serves as a receptor for secretory phospholipase A2 (sPLA2). It is highly expressed in kidney and is also present in lung macrophages, pancreas, amnion, and placenta. PLA2R is a receptor for phospholipase sPLA2-IB/PLA2G1B, but not sPLA2-IIA/PLA2G2A. It can also bind to snake PA2-like toxins. Binding of sPLA2 to its receptor participates in both positive and negative regulation of sPLA2 functions and clearance. Binding of sPLA2-IB/PLA2G1B is shown to induce various effects depending on the cell type, such as activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase cascade to induce cell proliferation, the production of lipid mediators, selective release of arachidonic acid in bone marrow-derived mast cells. PLA2R is also involved in responses in proinflammatory cytokine productions during endotoxic shock. The circulating, soluble form of secretory phospholipase A2 receptor acts as a negative regulator of sPLA2 functions by blocking the biological functions of sPLA2-IB/PLA2G1B. PLA2R is initially produced with a signal peptide sequence (aa 1-20), the cleavage of which produced the mature form that has a large extracellular domain (aa 21-1397), a transmembrane domain (aa 1398-1418), and a cytoplasmic tail (aa 1419-1463). The extracellular domain contains a fibronectin-like type II domain (173-221), and a tandem repeat of eight carbohydrate-recognition domains (C-type lectins). This ZooMAb recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.
