Summary	This gene encodes a member of the A-kinase anchoring protein (AKAP) family. These proteins are characterized by their ability to bind to the R subunit of protein kinase A (PKA) and anchor the protein at different subcellular locations. This protein has been shown to regulate apoptosis and to be involved in palatogenesis. Knockdown of this gene has been associated with altered histone modifications and reduced expression of developmental genes in mouse embryonic stem cells. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2015]
shRNA Design	These shRNA constructs were designed against multiple splice variants at this gene locus. To be certain that your variant of interest is targeted, please contact techsupport@origene.com. If you need a special design or shRNA sequence, please utilize our custom shRNA service.
Performance Guaranteed	OriGene guarantees that the sequences in the shRNA expression cassettes are verified to correspond to the target gene with 100% identity. One of the four constructs at minimum are guaranteed to produce 70% or more gene expression knock-down provided a minimum transfection efficiency of 80% is achieved. Western Blot data is recommended over qPCR to evaluate the silencing effect of the shRNA constructs 72 hrs post transfection. To properly assess knockdown, the gene expression level from the included scramble control vector must be used in comparison with the target-specific shRNA transfected samples. For non-conforming shRNA, requests for replacement product must be made within ninety (90) days from the date of delivery of the shRNA kit. To arrange for a free replacement with newly designed constructs, please contact Technical Services at techsupport@origene.com. Please provide your data indicating the transfection efficiency and measurement of gene expression knockdown compared to the scrambled shRNA control (Western Blot data preferred).
