Depositor Comments

These plasmids were generated as part of the Illuminating the Druggable Genome (IDG) program sponsored by the NIH Common Fund. The goal of this program is to identify, gather, and distribute information and resources for proteins that currently are not well-studied yet belong to commonly drug-targeted protein families: protein kinases, non-olfactory G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs), and ion channels. The IDG program is designed to develop fundamental research tools for understudied proteins, elucidate their function, and disseminate the IDG-related resources and data to the greater scientific community.

Purpose

Ready-to-use AAV5 particles produced from pAAV-GFAP-HA-rM3D(Gs)-IRES-mCitrine (#50472). In addition to the viral particles, you will also receive purified pAAV-GFAP-HA-rM3D(Gs)-IRES-mCitrine plasmid DNA.

GFAP-driven HA-tagged rM3D(Gs) and bicistronic mCitrine expression, for chemogenetic excitation. These AAV preparations are suitable purity for injection into animals.

Delivery

Viral Quality Control

Quality Control:
  • Addgene ensures high quality viral vectors by optimizing and standardizing production protocols and performing rigorous quality control (QC) (see a list of our QC assays). The specific QC assays performed varies for each viral lot. To learn which specific QC assays were performed on your lot, please contact us.
  • Titer: the exact titer of your sample will be reported on the tube. The titer you see listed on this page is the guaranteed minimum titer. See how titers are measured.

Visit our viral production page for more information.
