Western blot - Human APAF1 knockout A549 cell line (AB300843)
Western blot : Anti-APAF1 antibody [EPR21112-102] ab234436 staining at 1/1000 dilution, shown in green; Mouse anti-CANX (ab238078) loading control staining at 1/20,000 dilution, shown in magenta. A band was observed at 141 kDa in Wild-type A549 cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in APAF1 knockout A549 cell line. To generate this image, samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in 5pc Milk in TBS-0.1 % Tween® 20 (TBS-T) before incubation with primary antibodies overnight at 4°C. Blots were washed four times in TBS-T, incubated with secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature, washed again four times then imaged. Secondary antibodies used were Goat anti-Rabbit 800CW & Goat anti-Mouse 680RD at 1/20,000 dilution.

100 bp deletion after Leu 113 of WT protein
Reactivity data
Product details
Although we aim to provide customers with a homozygous clone, feasibility will be dependent on the biology of the protein. Should only heterozygous edits be achieved, you will be notified of the outcome and be asked to confirm whether the cell line is acceptable. All clones will be accompanied with DNA sequencing data, and the mutation description.
Recommended control: Human wild-type A549 cell line (ab288558). Please note a wild-type cell line is not automatically included with a knockout cell line order, if required please add recommended wild-type cell line at no additional cost using the code WILDTYPE-TMTK1.
We will provide viable cells that proliferate on revival.

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.
- Do not allow the cell density to exceed 7x104 cells/cm2.
Culture medium
F-12K + 10% FBS
Cryopreservation medium
Cell Freezing Medium-DMSO Serum free media, contains 8.7% DMSO in MEM supplemented with methyl cellulose.

Biological function summary
APAF1 functions as a central component of the apoptosome a multi-protein complex important for programmed cell death. This process is essential for normal development and cellular homeostasis. In the apoptosome APAF1 recruits and activates procaspase-9 leading to the activation of caspase-3. This cascade assures that cells die in a controlled manner preventing damage to surrounding tissues.
Pathways
APAF1 serves an important function in the intrinsic pathway of apoptosis. It mediates cytochrome c release from mitochondria a step essential for apoptosis initiation. Another important pathway involving APAF1 is the apoptotic signaling pathway. Proteins such as Bcl-2 family members and p53 influence APAF1's role in these pathways by regulating cytochrome c release and apoptosome assembly.
