Gene Information

Cat. No. SHH255229
Description The SureSilencing trade; shRNA Plasmids are designed to specifically knock down the expression of individual genes by RNA interference under either transient (with GFP) or stable transfection (for hygromycin, neomycin or puromycin-resistance) conditions after performance of the appropriate enrichment or selection procedures, respectively. Each vector contains the shRNA under control of the U1 promoter and either the GFP gene, for the enrichment of transiently transfected cells, or the neomycin or puromycin resistance genes, for the selection of stably transfected cells.
Gene Abbr CAV1
Species Rat
Report Gene GFP
Storage The SureSilencing shRNA Plasmids are shipped on dry ice or cold packs. Store all tubes at -20°C.
Target Gene CAV1
Background The scaffolding protein encoded by this gene is the main component of the caveolae plasma membranes found in most cell types. The protein links integrin subunits to the tyrosine kinase FYN, an initiating step in coupling integrins to the Ras-ERK pathway and promoting cell cycle progression. The gene is a tumor suppressor gene candidate and a negative regulator of the Ras-p42/44 mitogen-activated kinase cascade. Caveolin 1 and caveolin 2 are located next to each other on chromosome 7 and express colocalizing proteins that form a stable hetero-oligomeric complex. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Berardinelli-Seip congenital lipodystrophy. Alternatively spliced transcripts encode alpha and beta isoforms of caveolin 1.[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]
