RTN4RL2 (Reticulon-4 receptor-like 2) ia a GPI-anchored membrane protein that belongs to the Nogo receptor (NgR) family.  It has a 344 amino acid (aa) extracellular region with 8 LRR (leucine-rich) repeats. RTN4RL2 is highly expressed in brain and liver with lower levels in kidney, mammary gland, placenta, skeletal muscle, spleen and thyroid.  RTN4RL2 may function similar to RTN4R that act as a receptor for reticulon 4 (RTN4), oligodendrocyte myelin glycoprotein (OMG) and myelin-associated glycoprotein (MAG). RTN4R mediates axonal growth inhibition and may play a role in regulating axonal regeneration and plasticity in the adult central nervous system (CNS).  RTN4R mediates the activation of Rho and downstream reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton.  RTN4R acts in conjunction with RTN4 and LINGO1 (Leucine-rich repeat and immunoglobulin-like domain-containing nogo receptor-interacting protein 1) in regulating neuronal precursor cell motility during cortical development.  RTN4RL2 may thus play a role in regulating axonal regeneration and plasticity in the adult central nervous system.Localized to the surface of neurons, including axons. RTN4RL2 may undergoe zinc metalloproteinase-mediated ectodomain shedding in neuroblastoma cells; where it is released as a full-length ectodomain and an N-terminal fragment containing the leucine-rich repeat (LRR) region.

Product Details

 

Gene Symbol: RTN4RL2; NgR2; NGRH1; NGRL3; R4RL2

 

NCBI Gene ID: 349667

 

Uniprot Entry: Q86UN3

 

Construct Details: Full length human RTN4RL2 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, 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: 1263 (bp)

Primers: Gene insert coding sequence can be confirmed by following primers:

(a) forward (or 5'-end) primer: 5’-CAAATGGGCGGTAGGCGTG-3’;

(b) reverse (or 3'-end) primer: 5’-CCAGGTTTCCGGGCCCTCAC-3’

 

 

Note: The sequence may vary due to the naturally occurring variants or mutations, such as single nucleotide polymorphism, or the artifact during PCR amplification.  High fidelity PCR systems should always be used.
