Recombinant lentivirus, pU6-(Human slug), Overexpression(CAT#: Lenti-GTOH0030WQ)
The product is a lentivirus vector containing the insertion of slug gene. This gene encodes a member of the Snail family of C2H2-type zinc finger transcription factors. The encoded protein acts as a transcriptional repressor that binds to E-box motifs and is also likely to repress E-cadherin transcription in breast carcinoma. The product is suitable for stable overexpression of exogenous gene in various types of cells and can be used in gene therapy research and development.
