Description (eCommerce)
Centromere protein F (CENP-F) is a microtubule binding protein and component of the kinetochore. It is essential for kinetochore attachment, chromosome alignment, and the spindle checkpoint. CENP-F appears to be important to the association of the NudE-related proteins Ndel1 and Nde1 to the Lis1/dynein motor complex and their role in kinetochore function. CENP-F is a farnesylated protein and the farnesylation of CENP-F appears to be central to its role in mediating kinetochore-microtubule interactions as well as its degradation after mitosis. Recently, CENP-F expression has been correlated with markers of poor outcome in breast cancer.
Description (Vector)
CENPF encodes a protein that associates with the centromere-kinetochore complex. The protein is a component of the nuclear matrix during the G2 phase of interphase. In late G2 the protein associates with the kinetochore and maintains this association through early anaphase. It localizes to the spindle midzone and the intracellular bridge in late anaphase and telophase, respectively, and is thought to be subsequently degraded. The localization of this protein suggests that it may play a role in chromosome segregation during mitotis. It is thought to form either a homodimer or heterodimer. Autoantibodies against this protein have been found in patients with cancer or graft versus host disease.

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.
