| Description | GlycoFlux™ MSCV-PDK2 Viral Particle maintains PDK2 expression long-term with MSCV, phosphorylating and inhibiting PDH to shift carbon use away from glucose oxidation. Monitor PDH-E1α pSer293/300, acetyl-CoA generation, and FAO dependence under metabolic stress. |
| Product Type | Recombinant MSCV Retrovirus |
| Target | PDK2 |
| Species | Human |
| Promotor | MSCV 5' LTR promoter |
| Packaging System | Retrovirus |
| Packaging Cell | HEK293T |
| Application | This MSCV vector is a common retroviral vector system used to achieve high-efficiency, stable gene delivery into target cells, such as hematopoietic stem cells. It ensures long-term, sustained expression by stably integrating the gene into the host cell's genome. |
| Shipping | Dispatched on dry ice with temperature held at or below -80°C. |
| Storage | Store at -80°C to preserve titer and stability. |
| Handling Notes | Store at -80°C and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles to preserve viral titer. For safety, handle materials in a biological safety cabinet while wearing appropriate PPE (lab coat, gloves, and eye protection). |
| Product Disclaimer | These products are for research use only and not for diagnostic or clinical use. The user assumes full responsibility for all safety protocols and compliance with relevant regulations. While we are committed to quality, Creative Biolabs makes no guarantee as to the performance of these products in a specific application. |
| Titer Assay | qPCR |
| Mycoplasma Test | Negative |
| Sterility | Sterility testing confirmed no microbial contamination. |
| Transduction Evaluation | Creative Biolabs offers, upon request, in vitro and in vivo transduction assays to verify lentiviral targeting and to quantify transgene expression and functional output. |
| Insert Identity Confirmation | All Creative Biolabs retroviral vectors undergo PCR-based verification of proviral integration. Cells are transduced across a dilution series of the retroviral preparation; after several days, genomic DNA is isolated, and a defined region of the expected insert is PCR-amplified to confirm correct identity and integration. |
| Full Name | Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Kinase 2 |
| Alternative Name | PDHK2; PDKII |
| Location | 17q21.33 |
| Gene ID | 5164 |
| Summary | This gene encodes a pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase that phosphorylates and inhibits the mitochondrial pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, downregulating glucose oxidation. Its overexpression has been linked to cancer and diabetes. Alternative splicing generates multiple isoforms. |
