Description (eCommerce)
CDX is a caudal-related protein (Cdx) and member of the homeobox class of genes. Homeobox genes are a large family of transcription factors that play an important role in mesoderm development. CDX2 is one of three human homologs that functions in posterior structure development and intestinal epithelial development. CDX2 is a transactivator of several intestine-specific genes such as isomaltase, lactase, carbonic anhydrase, MUC2, and others. CDX2 may function as a tumor suppressor in the colon.
Description (Vector)
CDX2 is a member of the caudal-related homeobox transcription factor gene family. The encoded protein is a major regulator of intestine-specific genes involved in cell growth an differentiation. This protein also plays a role in early embryonic development of the intestinal tract. Aberrant expression of this gene is associated with intestinal inflammation and tumorigenesis.

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.
