Gene Information

Cat. No. CSC-RI0147
Description This cell line is engineered to overexpress human KCNQ5.
Background The human KCNQ3 and KCNQ5 genes encode the pore-forming subunits of Kv7.3 and Kv7.5, respectively. These subunits form heteromeric voltage-gated potassium channels that underlie M-current that regulates repetitive activity in neurons. Mutations in KCNQ3 that reduce M-current are responsible for some forms of benign familial neonatal seizure. Kv7.3/Kv7.5 channels expressed in neurons are therapeutic targets in seizure and cognitive impairment.
Target Gene KCNQ5
Gene Species Homo sapiens (Human)
Abbr HEK293-HuKCNQ3/KCNQ5
Alias KCNQ5, Kv7.5
Host Cell HEK293
Host Cell Species Homo sapiens (Human)
Applications

1. Gene expression studies

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.
