Description (eCommerce)
Prohibitin (PHB) has been identified as a tumor suppressor protein that can repress E2F-mediated transcription and arrest cell cycle progression. It has recently been shown to associate with members of the minichromosome maintenance complex such as MCM2, MCM5, and MCM7 and therefore is thought to impart its growth inhibitory effects via association with the replication machinery. Prohibitin is also implicated in regulating mitochondrial respiration and playing a role in aging.
Description (Vector)
Prohibitin is an evolutionarily conserved gene that is ubiquitously expressed. It is thought to be a negative regulator of cell proliferation and may be a tumor suppressor. Mutations in PHB have been linked to sporadic breast cancer. Prohibitin is expressed as two transcripts with varying lengths of 3' untranslated region. The longer transcript is present at higher levels in proliferating tissues and cells, suggesting that this longer 3' untranslated region may function as a trans-acting regulatory RNA.

About Storage Conditions

All our viral products should be kept at -80°C. At this temperature, the virus will remain stable for 6-12 months (and in some cases, up to 2 years). Once thawed, the product can be stored at 4°C for 2-3 weeks without significant loss of biological activity. We recommend aliquoting your vectors into low protein binding tubes upon receipt. This helps avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles, as well as prevent loss of virus. To maintain accurate titer, aliquot in at least 20ul per tube.
