Recombinant Human Prolactin Receptor, chiMAX Fc Fusion Protein

Cat.No. : PRLR-76H
Product Overview : Prolactin is a neuroendocrine peptide hormone that is secreted primarily by the pituitary gland. Prolactin receptor is a class 1 cytokine transmembrane receptor that varies in size with tissue source and species. It consists of an extracellular region with 5 cysteines which contains the prolactin binding site, a single transmembrane domain and a cytoplasmic region. The extracellular domain (Gln25-Asp234) is expressed recombinantly, purified by chromatography, sterile filtered and lyophilized. >95percent pure by SDS-PAGE and biologically active as measured by inhibitory activity toward prolactin-induced proliferation of Nb2-11 rat lymphoma cells (Gout et al. (1980) Cancer Res. 40:2433). ED50 for this effect is typically< 1.0="" ug/ml="" in="" the="" presence="" of="" 0.5="" ng/ml="" of="" recombinant="" human="" prolactin.="" add="" deionized="" water="" to="" original="" volume,="" aliquot="" and="" freeze="" unused="">This chiMAX Fc Fusion Protein is glycosylated and expressed as a chimera with the Fc region of mouse immunoglobulin (heavy chain hinge, CH2 and CH3). Fc fusion proteins are typically more stable and resistant to degradation and clearance than native cytokines. Fc fusion proteins appear as a dimer in SDS-PAGE under non-reducing conditions.

Ask a question
How does PRLR contribute to the development of breast cancer at the molecular level? 04/17/2022

PRLR overexpression or dysregulation has been associated with breast cancer. It can promote cell proliferation and survival through aberrant signaling pathways.

How does PRLR signaling vary in different tissues? 05/09/2021

Tissue-specific factors and the presence of co-receptors contribute to the diversity of PRLR signaling outcomes in different tissues and cell types.

What are the key signaling pathways activated by the PRLR protein? 02/22/2020

The JAK-STAT signaling pathway is a primary pathway activated by PRLR. It involves the activation of Janus kinases (JAKs) and signal transducers and activators of transcription (STATs).

Explain the process of endocytosis and intracellular trafficking of PRLR. 01/01/2020

PRLR undergoes endocytosis upon ligand binding, and the internalized receptor-ligand complex is trafficked through intracellular compartments, influencing downstream signaling and receptor recycling.

Discuss the post-translational modifications involved in regulating PRLR activity. 11/28/2018

Phosphorylation is a crucial post-translational modification of PRLR, affecting its activation and downstream signaling. Other modifications, such as glycosylation, also play roles.
