AAV-TERT-EGFP series viruses are ready to use AAV vectors carrying TERT-EGFP expression cassette. AAVnerGene offers AAV-TERT-EGFP vectors with 16 different serotypes and have >1000 AAV serotypes/variants to be choose for custom AAV packaging.

The TERT promoter refers to the regulatory sequence that controls the expression of the telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) gene. TERT is the catalytic subunit of the enzyme telomerase, which plays a crucial role in maintaining telomere length and thus in cellular aging and the lifespan of cells. The TERT promoter is particularly significant in cancer research, as telomerase activity is often upregulated in cancer cells, allowing them to proliferate indefinitely. The TERT promoter is also active in stem cells and certain progenitor cells, where telomerase activity is necessary for long-term self-renewal and tissue regeneration. In most normal somatic cells, the TERT promoter is relatively inactive, leading to limited telomerase activity and eventual cell aging and senescence.

By employing EGFP as a reporter, researchers gain the ability to effortlessly visualize and quantify the transduction efficiency of AAV vectors within target cells, further enhancing the precision of their experiments.

AAV viruses or AAV vectors, are a convenient solution for researchers who need to perform gene delivery experiments, such as gene therapy, gene editing, and gene regulation.  The premade AAV viruses in AAVnerGene are available in various serotypespromoters, and reporters/transgenes, allowing researchers to choose the most suitable vector for their specific research application. With over a thousand known AAV serotypes, customers have the tools to rapidly determine the vector specificity for various cell types. Additionally, the availability of multiple promoters paired with reporter genes allows for easy assessment and monitoring of gene expression levels and timing.

To ensure high-quality and pure products, AAVnerGene uses various assays to assess the quality and purity of their AAV vectors:

  • Gene specific qPCR Titer: Target the specific transgenes or common used elements, such as WPRE, CMV, PolyA, but not ITR.
  • Full/Empty Particle Ratio: Ensure all the premade AAVs has >80% full particles by Mass Photometry.
  • Endotoxin Testing: Ensure safety with endotoxin level <1U/1e13VG.
  • SDS-PAGE Gel: Assess the purity of the AAV viruses is great than 95%.
  • Infectivity Assay: Evaluate the efficiency of AAV viruses in transducing target cells if they have reporters.
