shRNA Lentivirus (self-inactivating), pU6-(PIGW-shRNA-Seq2)(CAT#: LV-SI0140WQ)
This product is a PIGW-shRNA encoding Lentivirus, which is based on HIV-1 serotype. The protein encoded by PIGW gene is an inositol acyltransferase that acylates the inositol ring of phosphatidylinositol. Defects in this gene are a cause of the age-dependent epileptic encephalopathy West syndrome as well as a syndrome exhibiting hyperphosphatasia and cognitive disability (HPMRS5). The expression of PIGW-shRNA leads to target gene silencing and this product can be used in gene therapy research and development.
