Beschreibung

General description

This product was derived from ATCC Cat. No. HTB-96.

U2OS GFP-HMGA1 are osteosarcoma, epithelial cells, from a human caucasian female (aged 15 years), with a GFP-tagged modification.

Application

This product is a human U2OS cell line in which the genomic HMGA1 gene has been endogenously tagged with a Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) gene using CompoZr^® Zinc Finger Nuclease technology. Integration resulted in endogenous expression of the fusion protein in which GFP is attached to the C-terminus of HMGA1. Fluorescence imaging shows characteristic HMGA1 nuclear expression. This stable cell line was expanded from a single clone. The target′s gene regulation and corresponding protein function are preserved in contrast to cell lines with overexpression via an exogenous promoter.

Features and Benefits

GFP-tagged on chromosome 6p21.

The U2OS cells are adherent, with a doubling time of approx. 29 hours.

Preparation Note

Media Renewal changes two to three times per week.

Rapidly thaw vial by gentle agitation in 37°C water bath (~2 minutes), keeping vial cap out of the water. Decontaminate with 70% ethanol, add 9 mL culture media and centrifuge 125 x g (5-7 minutes). Resuspend in complete culture media and incubate at 37°C in a 5% CO2 atmosphere.

Subculture Ratio: approx. 1:3-1:6

The base medium for this cell line is McCoy′s 5A1 Medium Modified, Cat. No. M9309. To make the complete growth medium, add the following components to the base medium: fetal bovine serum, Cat. No. F4135, to a final concentration of 10%.

The cell freezing medium is DMSO 1X (Cat. No. C6164).

Analysis Note

Tested for Mycoplasma, sterility, post-freeze viability, short terminal repeat (STR) analysis for cell line identification, PCR assay for cell line species confirmation.
