Gene Information

Cat. No. CSC-RI0145
Description This cell line is engineered to overexpress human KCNQ3.
Background The human KCNQ2 and KCNQ3 genes encode the pore-forming subunits of Kv7.2 and Kv7.3, respectively. These subunits form heteromeric voltage-gated potassium channels that underlie M-current that regulates repetitive neuronal activity. Mutations in KCNQ2 or KCNQ3 that reduce M-current amplitude are responsible for some forms of benign familial neonatal seizure. Kv7.2/Kv7.3 channels are therapeutic targets in seizure, stroke, migraine, dementia, bipolar disorder, anxiety, and neuropathic pain.
Target Gene KCNQ3
Gene Species Homo sapiens (Human)
Abbr HEK293-HuKCNQ2/KCNQ3

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.
