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

GTPBP2 also known as GTP-binding protein 2 is a protein that functions as a GTPase. It hydrolyzes GTP to GDP which is important for signaling and cellular processes. GTPBP2 has a molecular mass of approximately 75 kDa. It is widely expressed in various tissues including the brain thyroid and lung. Its expression suggests a significant role in cellular regulation across diverse cell types.
Biological function summary

This GTPase is involved in ribosome function and plays a role in translation regulation. Though not part of a large protein complex GTPBP2 interacts with certain ribosomal components which indicates its involvement in protein synthesis. It can influence mRNA translation efficiency through these interactions impacting cellular growth and function.

Pathways

GTPBP2 participates in the mRNA surveillance pathway and the regulation of translation. It ensures the fidelity of mRNA translation and prevents errors during protein synthesis. In these pathways GTPBP2 works in conjunction with other proteins like eEF2 and eRF1 which are essential for elongation and termination phases of protein translation respectively.

GTPBP2 is linked to neurodegenerative diseases and certain types of cancer. Mutations or dysregulation in GTPBP2 can contribute to neurodegenerative conditions possibly due to impaired translation regulation in neurons. Additionally abnormalities in its function have been associated with increased cancer risk. GTPBP2 connections with proteins such as p53 and Rb highlight its influence on cell cycle regulation and apoptosis further affecting disease progression.
