Description

GlycoFlux™ Lenti-ST3GAL5 Viral Particle provides ST3GAL5 (GM3 synthase), which converts lactosylceramide to ganglioside GM3, a node that influences differentiation, proliferation, and signaling. This lentiviral construct enables construction of stably transduced mammalian cells to map ganglioside pathways, evaluate receptor microdomain organization, and perform mechanism-driven screens; selection or marker-based enrichment integrates seamlessly.

Product Type

Recombinant Lentivirus

Target

ST3GAL5

Species

Human

Promotor

EF1a

Packaging System

Lentivirus

Packaging Cell

HEK293T

Application

The lentiviral vector is a powerful, HIV-based system used for gene delivery, notable for its ability to transduce both dividing and non-dividing cells (e.g., neurons, stem cells). It permanently integrates the gene into the host genome, ensuring long-term, sustained expression for applications in research and studies related to gene therapy.

Shipping

Shipped on dry ice with temperature held at or below -80°C.

Storage

Store at -80°C to maintain their titer and stability.

Handling Notes

Store products at -80°C, and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles to maintain viral titer. For safety, always handle the products in a biological safety cabinet, using appropriate personal protective equipment like lab coats, gloves, and eye protection.

Titer Assay	qPCR
Mycoplasma Test	Negative
Sterility	Sterility testing confirmed no microbial contamination.
Transduction Evaluation	On request, Creative Biolabs conducts in vitro or in vivo transduction assays to evaluate lentiviral delivery to target cells and to quantify transgene expression and function.
Insert Identity Confirmation	All lentiviral vectors at Creative Biolabs are verified for correct proviral integration by PCR. In this assay, cells are transduced with serial dilutions of the lentiviral vector, harvested after a few days, and genomic DNA is isolated. A defined region of the expected lentiviral insert is then PCR-amplified to confirm identity.

Full Name	ST3 Beta-galactoside alpha-2,3-sialyltransferase 5
Alternative Name	SIAT9; ST3GalV; SIATGM3S
Location	2p11.2
Gene ID	8869
Summary	Catalyzes ganglioside GM3 formation from lactosylceramide, impacting differentiation, proliferation, and signaling.
