human RB shRNA Adenovirus
This is an pre-made gene silencing adenovirus that expresses a shRNA to knockdown human RB gene. The shRNA expression is driven by an U6 promoter.
The knockdown of this human gene was validated by western blot in HCT-116 cells.

Description (eCommerce)
Retinoblastoma 1 (Rb1) is a negative regulator of the cell cycle and was the first tumor suppressor gene found. Rb1 has also been found to stabilize constitutive heterochromatin to maintain the overall chromatin structure. The active, hypophosphorylated form of the protein binds transcription factor E2F1. Defects in this gene are a cause of childhood cancer retinoblastoma (RB), bladder cancer, and osteogenic sarcoma [taken from NCBI Entrez Gene (GeneID: 5925)].

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.
