Description (eCommerce)
SPTBN2/SCA5 is a member of the beta spectrin gene family and a subunit of the spectrin cytoskeletal scaffolding protein that links the plasma membrane to cytoskeletal actin and functions in cellular shape and organelle organization. SPTBN2/SCA5 has been identified as a Golgi- and vesicle-associated spectrin. Mutations in SPTBN2/SCA5 cause spinocerebellar ataxia type 5 (SCA5), an autosomal dominant disease characterized by progressive incoordination of gait, hand, speech, and eye movements.
Description (Vector)
Spectrins are principle components of a cell's membrane-cytoskeleton and are composed of two alpha and two beta spectrin subunits. The protein encoded by this gene (SPTBN2), is called spectrin beta non-erythrocytic 2 or beta-III spectrin. It is related to, but distinct from, the beta-II spectrin gene which is also known as spectrin beta non-erythrocytic 1 (SPTBN1). SPTBN2 regulates the glutamate signaling pathway by stabilizing the glutamate transporter EAAT4 at the surface of the plasma membrane. Mutations in this gene cause a form of spinocerebellar ataxia, SCA5, that is characterized by neurodegeneration, progressive locomotor incoordination, dysarthria, and uncoordinated eye movements.

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.
