Product Science Overview

Gene and Protein Function

RARRES2 is a protein-coding gene that is upregulated by the synthetic retinoid tazarotene. The protein encoded by this gene initiates chemotaxis via the ChemR23 G protein-coupled seven-transmembrane domain ligand . It is expressed in a wide variety of tissues and has several roles, including acting as an adipokine and an antimicrobial protein with activity against bacteria and fungi .

Biological Roles
  1. Adipogenesis and Metabolism: RARRES2 regulates adipogenesis, metabolism, and inflammation through activation of the chemokine-like receptor 1 (CMKLR1). It also acts as a ligand for CMKLR2 and can bind to C-C chemokine receptor-like 2 (CCRL2) with a lower affinity . The protein positively regulates adipocyte differentiation and modulates the expression of adipocyte genes involved in lipid and glucose metabolism .

  2. Inflammation: RARRES2 acts as a pro-inflammatory adipokine, causing an increase in the secretion of pro-inflammatory and prodiabetic adipokines. This further impairs adipose tissue metabolic function and has negative systemic effects, including impaired insulin sensitivity, altered glucose and lipid metabolism, and decreased vascular function in other tissues .

  3. Antimicrobial Activity: The protein has antimicrobial properties, providing activity against bacteria and fungi .

Clinical Significance

RARRES2 is associated with several diseases, including Schnitzler Syndrome and Psoriasis . It is also involved in pathways related to the response to elevated platelet cytosolic Ca2+ . The protein’s role in inflammation and metabolism makes it a potential target for therapeutic interventions in metabolic disorders and inflammatory diseases.

Evolution and Expression

The RARRES2 gene has been studied in various species, including baboons and chimpanzees. The gene’s evolution fits the hypothesis of purifying selection, and its expression profiles are similar in these species . RARRES2 transcripts are present in multiple tissues, including the liver, lung, adipose tissue, ovary, pancreas, heart, hypothalamus, and pituitary .
