This AAV expresses TdTomato driven by an astrocyte GFAP(0.7) promoter.

This 0.7 Kb novel GFAP promoter was constructed by ligating several key regulatory elements of the 2.2Kb human GFAP promoter. It drives essentially the same expression pattern as the parental 2.2 Kb GFAP promoter but with two-fold greater activity.

dTomato belongs to a family of fluorescent proteins called mFruit. Two dTomato units were joined head-to-tail through a linker, yielding a tandem dimer fluorescent protein, tdTomato. The tdTomato derivative is the brightest fluorescent protein yet reported, featuring an orange-red emission maximum at 581nm and is one of the most photo-stable fluorescent proteins. Other fluorescent proteins with similar emission spectra include DsRed, DsRed2, TurboRFP, TagRFP, and TagRFP-T.

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.
