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 HCT116 cell line (ab288559). 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.
Culture medium
McCoY5a + 10% FBS
Cryopreservation medium
Cell Freezing Medium-DMSO Serum free media, contains 8.7% DMSO in MEM supplemented with methyl cellulose.

Biological function summary
ELK1 functions in the regulation of gene expression related to cellular proliferation and differentiation. It often forms a ternary complex with serum response factor (SRF) on serum response elements (SREs) to modulate the transcriptional responses of genes important for cell growth. The activation of ELK1 is phosphorylation-dependent primarily by mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) which further facilitates its role as a transcription regulator. This phosphorylation increases the transcriptional activity enabling ELK1 to actively participate in cellular responses to external signals.
Pathways
ELK1 participates prominently in the MAPK/ERK signaling pathway and the JNK signaling pathway. Through these pathways ELK1 gets activated influencing the transcription of immediate early genes responsible for cell cycle progression and apoptosis. ELK1 interacts with other proteins in these pathways such as MEK and ERK leading to a coordinated response to growth signals. These interactions underline its importance in signal transduction processes and cellular response mechanisms.
