Description (including epitope tag if present):
Myc-p115RGS from Dr. Tohru Kosaza of Northwestern University which contains the RGS-like domain from p115RhoGEF was used to prepare a adenoviral vector using the AdtrackCMV vector and the AdEasy system.
Source:
Pactrick J Casey of Duke University. Vector can be obtained from Dr. Williams with permission from Dr Casey.
How used:
Binds to Ga12/13 and inhibits their signaling in prostate cancer and mouse pancreatic acinar cells.
