Gene Information

Cat. No. CSC-RI0131
Description This cell line is engineered to overexpress human KCNA5.
Background The human KCNA5 gene encodes the pore-forming subunit of Kv1.5, a voltage-gated potassium channel. A KCNA5 mutation has been linked to an inherited form of atrial fibrillation. Kv1.5 channels are widely expressed in heart, colon, kidney, vascular smooth muscle and CNS, and are therapeutic targets in atrial fibrillation, pulmonary hypertension, cancer, and multiple sclerosis.
Target Gene KCNA5
Gene Species Homo sapiens (Human)
Abbr HEK293-HuKCNA5
Alias KCNA5, HK2, HPCN1, Kv1.5, HCK1, PCN1, ATFB7, KV1.5, MGC117058, MGC117059
Host Cell HEK293
Host Cell Species Homo sapiens (Human)
Applications

1. Gene expression studies

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.
Ship Dry ice
