Cat. No. : CSC-RI0105
Host Cell : CHO-K1 Size : >1x106 frozen cells/vial
| Cat. No. | CSC-RI0105 |
| Description | This cell line is engineered to overexpress human KCNMA1. |
| Background | The human KCNMA1 gene encodes the pore-forming subunit of KCa1.1, a calcium-activated BK potassium channel. KCa1.1 channels, widely distributed, are therapeutic targets in stroke, seizure, urinary incontinence, asthma, hypertension, gastric dysmotility, schizophenia, and prostate cancer. |

| 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. |
