Scientific Data Images for Human VIGR/GPR126 MAb (Clone 1044430)

Detection of VIGR/GPR126 in HEK293 Human Cell Line Transfected with Human VIGR/GPR126 by Flow Cytometry.

HEK293 human embryonic kidney cell line transfected with human VIGR/GPR126 (filled histogram) or irrelevant protein (open histogram) was stained with Mouse Anti-Human VIGR/GPR126 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB10577) followed by Allophycocyanin-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (F0101B). Gate was set based on Mouse IgG2A Isotype Control (MAB003). Staining was performed using our Staining Membrane-associated Proteins protocol.

Background: VIGR/GPR126

VIGR (Vascular Inducible G Protein-coupled Receptor), also known as ADGRG6, DREG, and GPR126, is a neuronal 7 TM pass (G protein)-coupled receptor (GPCR) involved in myelination and glial and Schwann cell development (1, 2). Human VIGR cDNA encodes a 1221 amino acid (aa) residue membrane protein with a 37 aa signal peptide, a 825 aa extracellular domain (ECD) with 27 potential N-linked glycosylation sites, seven transmembrane segments that span between aa 863 and aa 1113, and a 108 aa residue cytoplasmic domain. Within ECD human VIGR shares 83% aa sequence identity with mouse and rat VIGR. VIGR is essential for the development of diverse organs (1, 2). Type IV collagen, a major constituent of the basement membrane, binds to VIGR and activates its signaling function (3). This interaction stimulated the production of cAMP in rodent Schwann cells, which require VIGR activity to differentiate, and in human embryonic kidney (HEK293) cells expressing exogenous VIGR. Laminin-211 binds a novel laminin-binding domain in VIGR N-terminal fragment between aa 446 and 807 (4). VIGR-Laminin-211 interactions regulate terminal differentiation and myelination by ensuring appropriate levels of cAMP for a given stage of Schwann cell development (4).
