pDUO plasmid co-expressing MD1 and RP105 genes
pDUO-MD1/RP105 is an expression vector designed to co-express MD1 and RP105 genes known to interact with each other : human MD1 (486 bp) and human RP105 (1983 bp) or murine MD1 (486 bp) and murine RP105 (1983 bp).
The genes cloned into pDUO comprise the coding sequence (without introns) from the ATG to the Stop codon.

Description
MD1 and RP105 (CD180) are physically associated with each other and are involved in the response to LPS. RP105 is a TLR-related protein, that acts as both an LPS sensor and a regulator of B cell proliferation [1]. Stable expression of MD-1 was shown to induce an increase in cell surface RP105 on a cell line that expresses RP105 alone, suggesting that MD1 is important for efficient cell surface expression of RP105 [2]. When induced by LPS, the RP105/MD1 complex regulates B-cell proliferation, antibody production, and B7.2/CD86 up-regulation [3].
