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.
Storage
- Shipped at conditions
- Dry Ice

- -196°C
- Appropriate long-term storage conditions
- -196°C
Notes
We will provide viable cells that proliferate on revival.

Supplementary info

- Activity summary
The WDR9/BRWD1 protein is also known by its alternate name BRWD1 and has a molecular mass of approximately 250 kDa. This protein shows expression in various tissues with higher levels observed in testis and certain brain regions. WDR9/BRWD1 is a member of the WD-repeat protein family and contains two bromodomains. Mechanically it plays a role in mediating protein-protein interactions aiding in chromatin organization and gene regulation.
- Biological function summary
WDR9/BRWD1 functions in regulating transcriptional processes and is often part of nuclear chromatin complexes. It participates in gene expression important for spermatogenesis and neuronal differentiation. This protein interacts with other chromatin-modifying proteins contributing to the alteration of chromatin states and affecting cellular programs.
- Pathways
Different regulatory and developmental processes involve WDR9/BRWD1. The protein plays roles within chromatin remodeling pathways. It engages with pathways such as histone modification and transcriptional regulation working alongside proteins like histones and other transcription factors which helps coordinate the accessibility of transcriptional machinery to DNA.
- Associated diseases and disorders
Abnormal WDR9/BRWD1 expression or mutations have connections to neurological and reproductive conditions. Studies link its dysregulation to intellectual disabilities and fertility issues. Its association with chromatin-modifying proteins implicates it in diseases where gene expression regulation plays a role such as certain cognitive disorders.
