Cat. No. : CSC-RI0123
Host Cell : HEK293 Size : >1x106 frozen cells/vial
| Cat. No. | CSC-RI0123 |
| Description | This cell line is engineered to overexpress human KCNA2. |
| Background | The human KCNA2 gene encodes the pore-forming subunit of Kv1.2, a voltage-gated potassium channel. Kv1.2 channels expressed in neurons are therapeutic targets in multiple sclerosis. |
| Target Gene | KCNA2 |

| 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. |
