DDX18 (DEAD-box helicase 18) is a member of the DEAD-box RNA helicase family, utilizing the energy derived from ATP hydrolysis to bind and remodel RNA structures. It plays a central role in various key RNA metabolic processes, including the processing of ribosomal RNA (rRNA), ribosome assembly, pre-mRNA splicing, and miRNA biogenesis. Studies have shown that DDX18 is crucial for cell proliferation, cell cycle regulation, and the maintenance of genomic stability. Aberrant expression or function of DDX18 is closely related to the occurrence and development of various cancers (such as liver cancer and colorectal cancer), promoting tumor progression by affecting the translation of oncogenes and cell proliferation signaling pathways, thus being considered as a potential tumor therapeutic target. Properties Storage Instructions All the reagents are stored at 2-8℃ for 6 months or -20℃ for 12 months. Refer to the protocol for further storage instructions.

Answer: We recommend performing a serial dilution. For example, if human serum requires a 1,000,000-fold dilution, you can use a three-step 100× dilution method as follows: Step 1: Take 2 uL of human serum and add it to 198 uL of sample diluent, mix thoroughly to obtain a 100-fold diluted sample. Step 2: Take 2 uL of the 100-fold diluted sample and add it to 198 uL of sample diluent, mix thoroughly to obtain a 10,000-fold diluted sample. Step 3: Take 2 uL of the 10,000-fold diluted sample and add it to 198 uL of sample diluent, mix thoroughly to obtain a 1,000,000-fold diluted sample. If further dilution is required, additional serial steps can be used. We do not recommend using any other solutions or water for dilution, except for the sample diluent we suggest. If your sample diluent is still insufficient, please contact our customer service for more sample diluent.
