Recombinant Human PIgR Protein is produced by HEK293 cells expression system. The target protein is expressed with sequence (Lys19-Arg638) of human PIGR (Accession #NP_002635.2) fused with a Fc, Avi tag at the C-terminus. |
| Function | Polymeric immunoglobulin receptor: Mediates selective transcytosis of polymeric IgA and IgM across mucosal epithelial cells. Binds polymeric IgA and IgM at the basolateral surface of epithelial cells. The complex is then transported across the cell to be secreted at the apical surface. During this process, a cleavage occurs that separates the extracellular (known as the secretory component) from the transmembrane segment. Secretory component: Through its N-linked glycans ensures anchoring of secretory IgA (sIgA) molecules to mucus lining the epithelial surface to neutralize extracellular pathogens. On its own (free form) may act as a non-specific microbial scavenger to prevent pathogen interaction with epithelial cells. |
