AdipoUpX™ Human OTOP1 MMLV Particle (Overexpression)

Product Overview

Description: AdipoUpX™ Human OTOP1 MMLV Particle (Overexpression) is a high-titer, ready-to-use MMLV retroviral particle professionally engineered for the stable overexpression of the human OTOP1 gene. This proton channel is an emerging target in studying taste perception and the regulation of metabolic rate. Stable genomic integration in dividing cells provides a robust platform for investigating its role in nutrient sensing. Every batch passes comprehensive quality control—including titer, sterility testing, and mycoplasma detection—to guarantee the highest research standards.

Production Cell Line: HEK293T

Promoter: Ubi; CMV; EF1a; Others

Product Availability: Produced Upon Order

Specification

Titer Test: qPCR

Insert Verification: Complete verification of the vector genome's integrity was achieved for every viral preparation using the PCR method.

Sterility Test: The final viral preparation was confirmed sterile after testing.

Mycoplasma Test: Mycoplasma contamination testing met all release specifications for all product lots.

Other QC: We also provide additional testing services tailored to specific project requirements. Additionally, we conduct customized assessments to analyze the expression levels and biological functions of genetically modified organisms.

Storage: The product must be immediately transferred to -80 °C storage upon its arrival.

Stability: For long-term storage, the product guarantees excellent stability for 6-12 months at -80°C. After thawing, refrigeration at 4°C allows use of the working solution for 2-3 weeks.

Shipping Condition: Our MMLV retroviral products are shipped using dry ice.

Handling Notes: Due to their high sensitivity to temperature fluctuations and damaging freeze-thaw cycles, viral particles should be aliquoted into low-protein-binding tubes immediately upon receipt to maintain titer and product integrity. This procedure must be conducted within a biosafety cabinet.

Intended Use: This product is intended for research use only and is not for use in diagnosis or therapeutic applications.

Product Disclaimer: All products have undergone rigorous internal QC inspections as part of our company's commitment to product quality. However, due to the diversity and complexity of experimental conditions, users bear ultimate responsibility for product storage, handling, and compliance with all safety and biosafety protocols, and we offer no guarantee of product performance or experimental results in any specific application.

Target Profile

Gene Name: OTOP1

Full Name: Otopetrin 1

Gene ID: 133060

RefSeq ID-1: NP_819056.1

RefSeq ID-2: NM_177998.3

Summary: OTOP1 encodes an otopetrin family transmembrane protein involved in calcium signaling. While essential for vestibular function, OTOP1 is also induced in white adipose tissue during obesity. The protein participates in anti-inflammatory signaling pathways that mitigate obesity-associated adipose inflammation and help preserve metabolic homeostasis.
