Description

Plexin domain containing 2 (PLXDC2) is a nidogen/plexin homology transmembrane protein encoded by PLXDC2. PLXDC2 is specifically expressed on the surface of macrophages but not neutrophils, T cells, or NK cells. PLXDC2 has several functions: i) in the brain, it is involved in the proliferation and differentiation of neural progenitors during the development of the nervous system; ii) in the immune system, PLXDC2 on macrophages binds to secreted PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homolog) to sequentially activate JAK2-STAT1 signaling, reprogram macrophages and drive antitumor immunity. Aberrant expression of PLXDC2 in different cancers has been reported. PLXDC2, together with its homolog PLXDC1, seems to be also the receptor for pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) in endothelial cells.

The protein PLXDC2 (mouse):Fc (LALA-PG)-KIH (human) (rec.) is produced by using two different vectors, one encoding for the PLXDC2 (mouse):Fc (LALA-PG) Knobs sequence (synthesizing a protein of 110kDa) and one encoding for the Fc (LALA-PG) Holes sequence (synthesizing a protein of 28kDa). Both vectors transfected into HEK293 cells produce both Fc molecules (Knobs-into-Holes technology; J.B. Ridgway, et al.; Protein Eng. 9, 617 (1996)) required for dimerization of the Fc moieties and for secretion of the final protein PLXDC2 (mouse):Fc-KIH (human) (rec.). The LALA-PG mutations inhibit binding to FcγRs and C1q while FcRn binding and Fc stability remain unaffected.
