Recombinant Mouse VIP36-like protein is synthesized using multiple expression systems:
| Host System | Purity | Tag | Applications |
|---|---|---|---|
| E. coli | ≥85% | None/His-tag | SDS-PAGE, WB, ELISA |
| Yeast/Baculovirus | ≥85% | Variable | Structural studies |
| Mammalian Cells | >95% | His-tag | Functional assays, immunoprecipitation |
Regulates ER export of select glycoproteins by interacting with ERGIC-53, a cargo receptor .
Loss of LMAN2L disrupts surface expression of integrin α6 (ITGA6), suggesting a role in vesicular transport .
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) protein US2 targets LMAN2L for TRC8-mediated degradation to impair host immune responses .
Associates with enterovirus 3A protein, SCAMP3, and PI4KIIIβ to form replication complexes, enhancing viral RNA synthesis .
Demonstrates calcium-dependent lectin activity for high-mannose glycans, critical for quality control in the ER .
Glycobiology: Used to analyze mannose-binding specificity and ER-Golgi transport mechanisms .
Virology: Employed in studies on enterovirus and HCMV replication strategies .
Protein Interaction Mapping: Facilitates identification of binding partners (e.g., SCAMP3, PI4KIIIβ) via co-immunoprecipitation .
