Summary	This gene encodes a multifunctional glycoprotein that plays a role in the intracellular metabolism of various sphingolipids or secreted into the plasma, milk or cerebrospinal fluid. The encoded protein undergoes proteolytic processing to generate four different polypeptides known as saposin A, B, C or D, that are required for the hydrolysis of certain sphingolipids by lysosomal hydrolases. Alternately, the encoded protein is secreted into body fluids where it exhibits neurotrophic and myelinotrophic activities. A complete lack of the encoded protein is fatal to mice either at the neonatal stage or within the first month due to severe leukodystrophy and sphingolipid accumulation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms that may undergo similar processing to generate the mature saposins. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 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).

*Delivery time may vary from web posted schedule. Occasional delays may occur due to unforeseen complexities in the preparation of your product. International customers may expect an additional 1-2 weeks in shipping.
