GPR179 (Probable G-protein coupled receptor 179) is a 7 transmembrane (7TM) receptor belonging to the family 3 (also known as family C) of the G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). Structurally they are composed of 4 elements; an N-terminal signal peptide; a large hydrophilic extracellular agonist-binding region; a region containing 7TM domains; and a C-terminal cytoplasmic domain of variable length. Family 3 members include the metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs), the extracellular calcium-sensing receptors (CASRs), the gamma-amino-butyric acid (GABA) type B receptors, and the vomeronasal type-2 receptors. These GPCRs regulate many important physiological processes and many of them are promising targets for drug development. GPR179 is an orphan receptor whose function remains unknown. It may be involved in vision for signal transduction through retinal depolarizing bipolar cells. GPR179 has an EGF-like calcium binding domain and a 7-TM domain in the N-terminal region of the protein. Mutations in this gene are associated with congenital stationary night blindness type 1E.

Product Details

 

Gene Symbol: GPR179; CSNB1E; GPR158L, GPR158L1

 

NCBI Gene ID: 440435

 

Uniprot Entry: Q6PRD1

 

Construct Details: Full length human GPR179 gene 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 +/- a selection marker, 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: 7104 (bp)
