CDCP1 Lentiviral Activation Particles (h) | sc-404730-LAC | 200 µl | $455.00 |
CDCP1 (CUB domain containing protein 1) is a transmembrane glycoprotein implicated in cell–matrix interactions and dynamic regulation of adhesion, migration, and survival signaling. It functions as a scaffold for Src family kinases and can couple extracellular cues to downstream pathways including Src/FAK, PI3K–AKT, and MAPK signaling, influencing cytoskeletal remodeling and anoikis resistance. CDCP1 is frequently associated with invasive phenotypes in epithelial malignancies and has been linked to metastatic progression and therapy resistance mechanisms in multiple tumor contexts. These properties make CDCP1 a useful node for studying integrin cross-talk, protease-dependent receptor processing, and signal transduction at the plasma membrane.
CDCP1 Lentiviral Activation Particles (h) address this need by packaging the complete synergistic activation mediator (SAM) transcriptional activation system into transduction-ready, high-titer lentiviral particles, enabling efficient CDCP1 upregulation across a broader range of human cell types.
CDCP1 Lentiviral Activation Particles (h) deliver all functional components of the synergistic activation mediator (SAM) system via lentiviral transduction. The system comprises three particle preparations co-transduced into target cells: one encoding catalytically inactive dCas9 (D10A and N863A mutations) fused to the VP64 transactivation domain with a blasticidin resistance gene; one encoding the MS2-p65-HSF1 fusion protein with a hygromycin resistance gene; and one encoding a target-specific 20 nt sgRNA fused to two MS2 RNA aptamers with a puromycin resistance gene. Following lentiviral transduction and genomic integration of the expression cassettes, the SAM components are stably expressed and assemble at the target locus within the proximal promoter region upstream of the CDCP1 transcriptional start site, where VP64, p65, and HSF1 act cooperatively to recruit endogenous transcriptional machinery and drive sustained upregulation of endogenous CDCP1 expression. The use of nuclease-inactive dCas9 avoids the introduction of double-strand DNA breaks and preserves the native CDCP1 genomic locus and regulatory architecture.
The lentiviral format offers several practical advantages: stable genomic integration supports heritable activation across cell divisions; high-titer particle preparations eliminate the need for in-house viral production; and compatibility with primary, non-dividing, and transfection-resistant cell types expands experimental accessibility. Successful transduction can be confirmed and enriched through triple antibiotic selection using puromycin, hygromycin, and blasticidin.
