Clone the gene encoding the human C5a anaphylatoxin chemotactic receptor 1 (C5AR1) protein (1-350aa) fused with the C-terminal 10xHis-tag gene into an expression vector along with the gene for VLP-forming viral capsid proteins. Introduce the recombinant expression vector into mammalian cells cultured under optimal conditions to induce protein expression to form VLPs containing the C5AR1 protein. Lyse the cells to release VLPs and then purify the VLPs through affinity chromatography. The presence of recombinant human C5AR1 VLPs has been confirmed by a transmission electron microscope (TEM). Their activity has been validated through a functional ELISA and their endotoxin content is less than 1.0 EU/ug.
C5aR1, also known as C5a receptor 1, is a protein that acts as a receiver for C5a, a molecule that triggers inflammation. Found in various immune cells, it's a key player in many body processes [1]. C5aR1 spurs conditions like cancer growth, kidney damage, and immune responses by rallying immune cells to the scene [2][3]. In colorectal cancer, it encourages cancer cells to change their behavior, contributing to tumor spread [1]. Interestingly, it seems to have different effects on different parts of the body - while it worsens kidney damage in high blood pressure, it protects the heart under certain conditions [2]. Additionally, C5aR1 seems to fuel processes like energy production in breast cancer and kidney infections caused by certain bacteria [4][5]. It's also involved in immune cell activity in muscle diseases like amyotrophic lateral sclerosis [6].
When C5a activates C5aR1, it sets off signals that attract immune cells and release inflammation-triggering molecules [3][8][9]. This receptor is also linked to how our body responds to inflammation and cancer, helping to create an environment that's not too inflammatory for tumors and allowing cancer cells to escape detection [10]. Moreover, it plays a part in allergic asthma and even influences how certain cells in our body turn into bone cells [11][12]. Despite being initially seen as just a decoy receptor, C5aR1 is now recognized as a crucial player in our health and how diseases progress [13][14].

Applications : Binding assay/Protein-protein interaction
Review: I used the CSB-MP003996HU protein for an ELISA experiment, and the EC50 was measured to be 0.8830-2.771 ng/ml, indicating good protein activity. In the subsequent antibody screening, we employed flow cytometric analysis to determine whether this protein can bind to molecules expressed on the cell surface. The results showed that some antibodies were able to bind to this protein. The protein quality is quite good.
