220 kDa U5 snRNP-specific protein; apoptosis-regulated protein 1; apoptosis-regulated protein 2; HPRP8; p220; precursor mRNA processing protein; pre-mRNA-processing-splicing factor 8; PRP8; PRP8 homolog; PRP8 pre-mRNA processing factor 8 homolog; PRPC8; RP13; SNRNP220; splicing factor Prp8; U5 snRNP-specific protein (220 kD), ortholog of S. cerevisiae Prp8p
Description (eCommerce)
Pre-mRNA-processing-splicing factor 8 (PRPF8) is a central component of the spliceosome, which may play a role in aligning the pre-mRNA 5'- and 3'-exons for ligation. PRPF8 interacts with U5 snRNA, and with pre-mRNA 5'-splice sites in B spliceosomes and 3'-splice sites in C spliceosomes [taken from the Universal Protein Resource (UniProt) www.uniprot.org/uniprot/Q8TCS8].
Description (Vector)
Pre-mRNA splicing occurs in 2 sequential transesterification steps. The protein encoded by this gene is a component of both U2- and U12-dependent spliceosomes, and found to be essential for the catalytic step II in pre-mRNA splicing process. It contains several WD repeats, which function in protein-protein interactions. This protein has a sequence similarity to yeast Prp8 protein. This gene is a candidate gene for autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa.

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.
