Handling procedures

Initial handling guidelines

Upon arrival, the vial should be stored in liquid nitrogen vapor phase and not at -80°C. Storage at -80°C may result in loss of viability.

1. Thaw the vial in 37°C water bath for approximately 1-2 minutes.
2. Transfer the cell suspension (0.8 mL) to a 15 mL/50 mL conical sterile polypropylene centrifuge tube containing 8.4 mL pre-warmed culture medium, wash vial with an additional 0.8 mL culture medium (total volume 10 mL) to collect remaining cells, and centrifuge at 201 x g (rcf) for 5 minutes at room temperature. 10 mL represents minimum recommended dilution. 20 mL represents maximum recommended dilution.
3. Resuspend the cell pellet in 5 mL pre-warmed culture medium and count using a haemocytometer or alternative cell counting method seed all remaining cells into a T25.
4. Incubate the culture at 37°C incubator with 5% CO2. Check the culture one day after revival and continue to check until 80% confluent. Media change can be given if needed.
5. Once confluent passage into an appropriate flask at a density of 2x104 cells/cm2. Seeding density is given as a guide only and should be scaled to align with individual lab schedules. Cultures should be monitored daily.

Subculture guidelines
  • All seeding densities should be based on cell counts gained by established methods.
  • A guide seeding density of 2x104 cells/cm2 is recommended.
  • Cells should be passaged when they have achieved 80-90% confluence.
Culture medium

DMEM (High Glucose) + 10% FBS

Cryopreservation medium

Cell Freezing Medium-DMSO Serum free media, contains 8.7% DMSO in MEM supplemented with methyl cellulose.

Supplementary information

AAK1 also known as adaptor-associated kinase 1 is a protein kinase with a molecular weight of 88 kDa. It plays a significant role in the regulation of clathrin-mediated endocytosis. AAK1 phosphorylates the mu2 subunit of the AP2 complex which is critical for the recruitment of clathrin to membranes. This protein is expressed in various tissues with high levels noted in the brain and spinal cord. AAK1 also participates in the modulation of neurotransmitter receptors and synaptic vesicle function.
Biological function summary

AAK1 functions as part of the AP2 clathrin adaptor complex which is essential for the internalization of cargo at the plasma membrane. Its activity is important for maintaining proper cellular uptake of nutrients receptors and signaling molecules. In neurons AAK1 regulates the cycle of synaptic vesicles impacting neurotransmission by influencing vesicle release and recycling. It has been suggested that AAK1 also contributes to the modulation of dendritic spine morphology through its kinase activity.

Pathways

AAK1 participates in endocytosis and intracellular trafficking pathways. It is directly involved in the clathrin-mediated endocytic route interacting with other proteins such as clathrin and dynamin. This association with clathrin provides a mechanism for cargo selection and membrane curvature linking AAK1 to the broader system of intracellular transport. In addition AAK1 connects to MAPK signaling through potential cross-talk mechanisms highlighting its role in cellular signaling regulation.

AAK1 has connections to neurodegeneration and cancer. In diseases like Alzheimer's abnormal function or expression of AAK1 can affect synaptic activity potentially exacerbating memory loss and cognitive decline. AAK1 also shows altered expression patterns in some cancers suggesting a role in oncogenic pathways. Its interaction with proteins like ALK and Ret may influence cell migration and proliferation reflecting AAK1's impact on disease states.
