This AAV expresses roGFP1 driven by an astrocyte GFAP(2.2) promoter.

The GFAP(2.2) promoter is based on human glial fibrillary acidic protein gene (GFAP), which is the major intermediate filament protein in astrocytes. It has been shown that approximately 2 kb of 5′-flanking DNA of the human GFAP gene is sufficient to direct transgene expression to astrocytes and confer developmental/injury-induced regulation.

roGFP1 is a reduction-oxidation sensitive green fluorescent protein used as a biosensor. Two cysteines were introduced into the beta-barrel structure of GFP; the oxidation state, reduced dithiol or the oxidized disulfide, of the engineered thiols determines the fluorescent properties of the sensor. roGFPs (roGFP1 and roGFP2), have two fluorescent excitation maxima at about 400 and 490 nm, respectively and display rapid and reversible ratiometric changes in fluorescence in response to changes in redox potential in vitro and in vivo.

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.
