Product Overview
Description:
AdipoUpX™ Human UGCG MSCV Particle (Overexpression) is a high-titer retroviral particle engineered for stable overexpression of the human UGCG gene. UGCG catalyzes glucosylceramide synthesis, a key step in glycosphingolipid metabolism linked to insulin resistance. The MSCV vector supports long-term expression in hematopoietic stem cells, stem cells, and mammalian systems. All batches are QC-verified for sterility and titer.
Production Cell Line:
HEK293T
Promoter:
Ubi; CMV; EF1a; Others
Product Availability:
Produced Upon Order
Specification
Titer Test:
qPCR
Insert Verification:
Final QC confirmed the correct molecular size and integrity of the insert through specific PCR amplification.
Sterility Test:
No microbial contamination was detected in any product.
Mycoplasma Test:
No mycoplasma presence was detected in this final viral preparation upon comprehensive testing.
Other QC:
Our service scope includes both customized supplementary testing and comprehensive in vitro/in vivo transduction assessments.
Storage:
The necessity of immediate transfer to -80 °C storage following receipt is crucial for upholding the product's integrity.
Stability:
Biological activity remains intact for 6-12 months when stored at -80°C. Once removed from the freezer, the diluted working material is stable for up to 2-3 weeks at 4°C.
Shipping Condition:
Our MSCV retroviral products are shipped using dry ice.
Handling Notes:
Store the vector according to specified conditions and aliquot it immediately upon receipt into low-protein-binding tubes, which is necessary to maintain titer because viral particles are highly sensitive to both temperature fluctuations and freeze-thaw cycles.
Intended Use:
This product is intended for research use only and is not for use in diagnosis or therapeutic applications.
Product Disclaimer:
Throughout all operational processes, users bear ultimate responsibility for product storage, handling, and compliance with all safety protocols, laws, regulations, and biosafety requirements. Although our company commits to product quality via rigorous internal QC inspections, the complexity of experimental conditions means we cannot guarantee product performance or experimental results in any specific application.
Target Profile
Gene Name:
UGCG
Full Name:
UDP-glucose ceramide glucosyltransferase
Gene Symbol:
GCS; GLCT1
Summary:
UGCG encodes glucosylceramide synthase, the enzyme that catalyzes the first step in glycosphingolipid biosynthesis. Regulating the production of glucosylceramide, it contributes to membrane lipid composition and lipid signaling pathways relevant to metabolic regulation.
