| Description | GlycoFlux™ AAV1-PRKAA1 Viral Particle delivers stable PRKAA1 (AMPK α1) expression to restore energy-sensor kinase activity that phosphorylates metabolic enzymes under elevated AMP/ATP ratios, switching off ATP-consuming biosynthesis, and this product efficiently transduces heart, retina, and inner ear to enable long-term bioenergetics and stress-response modeling with a replication-incompetent safety profile. |
| Product Type | Recombinant AAV1 |
| Target | PRKAA1 |
| Species | Human |
| Promotor | CMV, CAG, TRE, or other promoters |
| Tissue Tropism | Smooth muscle, Central Nervous System (CNS), Retina, Pancreas, Inner Ear, Heart, Liver |
| Packaging System | AAV Triple-Plasmid Transfection System |
| Packaging Cell | HEK293T |
| Application | This AAV1 viral particle is primarily used for overexpressing target genes in muscle tissues (smooth muscle, heart) and the central nervous system (CNS) / sensory organs (retina, inner ear). It is an ideal tool for research and pre-clinical studies focused on myopathies, cardiac disorders, and certain neurological or sensory genetic diseases. |
| Shipping | Shipped on dry ice, with temperature maintained at ≤ -80°C. |
| Storage | Store at -80°C to preserve viral titer and stability. |
| Handling Notes | Store this product at -80°C and minimize freeze-thaw cycles to preserve viral titer. For safety, handle in a certified biological safety cabinet and wear appropriate PPE (lab coat, gloves, and eye protection). |
| Product Disclaimer | This product is intended for research use only and is not approved for diagnostic procedures or clinical applications. Users are solely responsible for implementing appropriate safety practices and complying with all applicable laws, regulations, and institutional policies. While Creative Biolabs is committed to rigorous quality control, no guarantee is made regarding performance in any particular assay or application. |
| Titer Assay | qPCR/TCID50 |
| Mycoplasma Test | No mycoplasma contamination was detected. |
| Sterility | Sterility testing verified the absence of microbial contamination. |
| Transduction Evaluation | Upon request, Creative Biolabs performs in vitro or in vivo transduction assays to assess AAV delivery to target cells and to quantify transgene expression and function. |
| Insert Identity Confirmation | All AAV preparations from Creative Biolabs are verified for vector-genome identity by PCR. In this assay, target cells are transduced with serial dilutions of the AAV preparation, harvested after a short incubation, and genomic DNA is isolated; a defined region of the packaged transgene is then PCR-amplified to confirm the expected sequence. |
| Full Name | Protein Kinase Amp-Activated Catalytic Subunit Alpha 1 |
| Alternative Name | AMPK; AMPKa1; AMPK alpha 1 |
| Location | 5p13.1 |
| Gene ID | 5562 |
| Summary | The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the ser/thr protein kinase family. It is the catalytic subunit of the 5'-prime-AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). AMPK is a cellular energy sensor conserved in all eukaryotic cells. The kinase activity of AMPK is activated by the stimuli that increase the cellular AMP/ATP ratio. AMPK regulates the activities of a number of key metabolic enzymes through phosphorylation. It protects cells from stresses that cause ATP depletion by switching off ATP-consuming biosynthetic pathways. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been observed. |
