Alternate Names
AOA; AOA1; aprataxin; AXA1; EAOH; EOAHA; FHA-HIT; forkhead-associated domain histidine triad-like protein
Description (eCommerce)
The Aprataxin gene was identified by linkage analysis as the defective gene in the neurogenerative disorder ataxia with oculomotor apraxia type 1 (AOA1) which is characterized by cerebellar ataxia, peripheral neuropathy, and hypoalbuminemia. Aprataxin functions in the DNA damage response and is involved in single-strand and double-strand break repair, and base excision repair.
Description (Vector)
APTX encodes a member of the histidine triad (HIT) superfamily. The encoded protein may play a role in single-stranded DNA repair through its nucleotide-binding activity and its diadenosine polyphosphate hydrolase activity. Mutations in this gene have been associated with ataxia-ocular apraxia. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified for this gene.

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.
