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

ATG3 also known as Autophagy-related protein 3 is an essential enzyme in the autophagy process. Its molecular weight is approximately 36 kDa. This protein facilitates the conjugation of LC3 (microtubule-associated protein 1A/1B-light chain 3) by acting as an E2-like enzyme. It is mainly expressed in tissues with high rates of autophagy including liver heart and brain.
Biological function summary

ATG3 plays an important role in the elongation of the autophagic membrane. It operates as a part of the autophagy machinery working closely with ATG7 an E1-like enzyme to transfer phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) to LC3 converting it into LC3-II. This lipidated form of LC3 is essential in the expansion and closure of the isolation membrane which forms the autophagosome the core structure for degradation and recycling of cellular components.

Pathways

ATG3 is a central player in the macroautophagy pathway a process critical for cellular homeostasis. It interacts with ATG7 to facilitate the lipidation of ATG8 family proteins which are important for autophagosome formation. Moreover ATG3 also links to apoptosis pathways where its balance with pro-apoptotic proteins helps regulate cell death processes.

ATG3 has been implicated in neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's. This relates partly to its role in protein clearance which is essential for preventing toxic aggregations. Altered ATG3 function can lead to accumulation of misfolded proteins exacerbating disease. Moreover ATG3's interaction with proteins in the cancer-related pathways such as p53 shows its involvement in tumorigenesis through its influence on cell survival and death mechanisms.
