Lysate Details for Array

• Type: Overexpression

Notes

HEK293T cells in 10-cm dishes were transiently transfected with a non-lipid polymer transfection reagent specially designed and manufactured for large volume DNA transfection. Transfected cells were cultured for 48hrs before collection. The cells were lysed in modified RIPA buffer (25mM Tris-HCl pH7.6, 150mM NaCl, 1% NP-40, 1mM EDTA, 1xProteinase inhibitor cocktail mix, 1mM PMSF and 1mM Na3VO4, and then centrifuged to clarify the lysate. Protein concentration was measured by BCA protein assay kit.This product is manufactured by and sold under license from OriGene Technologies and its use is limited solely for research purposes.

• solute carrier family 2 (facilitated glucose transporter), member 8

Background

Glucose transporter 8 is an insulin-regulated facilitative glucose transporter. It binds cytochalasin B in a glucose-inhibitable manner. It appears to be a dual-specific sugar transporter as it can be inhibited by fructose. It is highly expressed in testis, where it is down-regulated by estrogen, but not in testicular carcinoma. Lower amounts are present in most other tissues.

Limitations

This product is for research use only and is not approved for use in humans or in clinical diagnosis. Lysates are guaranteed for 6 months from date of receipt.
