Description (eCommerce)
UV radiation resistance associated gene (UVRAG) was first identified as a gene that could complement UV sensitivity in xeroderma pigmentosum cells. UVRAG may have tumor suppressor activity as mutations in the UVRAG gene have been associated with various human colon cancer cells and tissues. UVRAG has been shown to interact with Beclin 1 (Bcl-2-interacting protein), a protein that forms a complex with class III PI-3-kinase (PI3KC3) and is involved in autophagy. In this complex, UVRAG is proposed to function as a positive regulator of autophagy and a negative regulator of the growth of tumor cells.
Description (Vector)
UVRAG complements the ultraviolet sensitivity of xeroderma pigmentosum group C cells and encodes a protein with a C2 domain. The protein activates the Beclin1-PI(3)KC3 complex, promoting autophagy and suppressing the proliferation and tumorigenicity of human colon cancer cells. Chromosomal aberrations involving this gene are associated with left-right axis malformation and mutations in this gene have been associated with colon cancer.

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.
