Gene Information

Cat. No. CSC-RI0098
Description This cell line is engineered to overexpress human GABRG2
Background The human GABRA5, GABRB3, and GABRG2 genes encode a GABA-activated, chloride-selective channel. GABAA receptors expressed in neurons are sites of action for benzodiazepines, barbiturates, and neurosteroids; and therapeutic targets in treatment of several neurological disorders including seizures, anxiety, and insomnia.
Target Gene GABRG2
Gene Species Homo sapiens (Human)
Abbr HEK293-HuGABRA5/GABRB3/GABRG2
Alias GABRG2, gamma 2, CAE2, ECA2, GEFSP3
Host Cell HEK293
Host Cell Species Homo sapiens (Human)
Applications

1. Gene expression studies

2. Signaling pathway research

3. Drug screening and toxicology

4. Channelopathies research

Size >1x106 frozen cells/vial
Stability Validated for at least 10 passages
Quality Control Negative for bacteria, yeast, fungi and mycoplasma.
Storage Liquid nitrogen

Revival Rapidly thaw cells in a 37°C water bath. Transfer contents into a tube containing pre-warmed media. Centrifuge cells and seed into a 25 cm2 flask containing pre-warmed media.
Media Type Cells were cultured in DMEM supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum.
Growth Properties Cells are cultured as a monolayer at 37°C in a humidified atmosphere with 5% CO2. Split at 80-90% confluence, approximately 1:3-1:6.
Freeze Medium Complete medium supplemented with 10% (v/v) DMSO
Morphology Epithelial
Mycoplasma Negative
Format One frozen vial containing millions of cells
Storage Liquid nitrogen
Safety Considerations The following safety precautions should be observed.
1. Use pipette aids to prevent ingestion and keep aerosols down to a minimum.
2. No eating, drinking or smoking while handling the stable line.
3. Wash hands after handling the stable line and before leaving the lab.
4. Decontaminate work surface with disinfectant or 70% ethanol before and after working with stable cells.
5. All waste should be considered hazardous.
6. Dispose of all liquid waste after each experiment and treat with bleach.
