LAM; PPP1R160; protein phosphatase 1, regulatory subunit 160; TSC4; tuberin; tuberous sclerosis 2 protein
Description (eCommerce)
Tuberous sclerosis 2 protein (TSC2) forms a heterodimer with TSC1 to integrate cellular growth and stress signals. Defects in the TSC1 and TSC2 gene are responsible for the genetic disorder tuberous sclerosis. The TSC1/TSC2 complex functions in the mTOR pathway by negatively regulating mTOR activity via the small GTP-binding protein Rheb. TSC2 also been shown to interact with FOXO1 transcription factor.
Description (Vector)
Mutations in this gene lead to tuberous sclerosis complex. Its gene product is believed to be a tumor suppressor and is able to stimulate specific GTPases. The protein associates with hamartin in a cytosolic complex, possibly acting as a chaperone for hamartin. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.

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.
