This is an Adenovirus expressing shRNA for silencing of Mouse Bco1.
shADV-253914
Ad-m-BCMO1-shRNA
Ready-to-use Adenovirus expressing shRNA for silencing of Mouse Bco1 (beta-carotene oxygenase 1). Available with optional GFP reporter or cell-specific promoter.
Gene Reference Data
Alternate Names
Bcdo; Bcdo1; Bcmo1; beta-CD; betaCMOOX; CMO1; Cmoi
Description (Vector)
Symmetrically cleaves beta-carotene into two molecules of retinal. The reaction proceeds in three stages, epoxidation of the 15,15'-double bond, hydration of the double bond leading to ring opening, and oxidative cleavage of the diol formed.

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.
