Comments: | The I 2.1 cell line is a FADD mutant of the wild-type Jurkat cell line A3 (see ATCC -CRL-2570). Wild-type A3 cells were made neomycin resistant and treated with three cycles of exposure to the frameshifting mutagen ICR-191 to isolate clones harboring recessive mutations that were resistant to killing by Fas antibody. [51527] ICR-191 treated clones were serially diluted in 96-well plates in the presence of Fas Antibody for 3 to 5 weeks. [51529] Two of these ICR-191 treated clones have been deposited at the ATCC . They are I 9.2 (ATCC CRL-2571), a clone with a mutation in the cysteine protease caspase-8/FLICE and I 2.1 (ATCC CRL-2572), a clone with a mutation in the adaptor FADD. Unlike the parental line A3 that does express FADD, the I 2.1 cell line does not express FADD protein by immunoblot analysis and is compley resistant to Fas-induced death. [51529] Complementation of the I 2.1 cell lines with wild-type FADD restores Fas-mediated apoptosis. Fas activation of caspase-2, caspase-3, caspase-7, and caspase-8 is compley defective in the FADD mutant cell line I 2.1. [51529] This cell line can be used to study the role of FADD in apoptotic signaling pathways in the absence of overxpression. |
Propagation: | ATCC complete growth medium: The base medium for this cell line is ATCC-formulated RPMI-1640 Medium, Catalog No. 30-2001. To make the complete growth medium, add the following components to the base medium: fetal bovine serum to a final concentration of 15%. Atmosphere: air, 95%; carbon dioxide (CO2), 5% Temperature: 37.0°C |
Subculturing: | Protocol: Cultures can be maintained by addition of fresh medium or replacement of medium. Alternatively, cultures can be established by centrifugation with subsequent resuspension in fresh medium at 3 to 5 X 10(5) viable cells/ml. Maintain cell density between 2 X 10(5) and 2 X 10(6) viable cells/ml. Medium Renewal: Add fresh medium every 2 to 3 days (depending on cell density) |
Preservation: | Freeze medium: Complete growth medium supplemented with 5% (v/v) DMSO Storage temperature: liquid nitrogen vapor phase |
