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.

This product is subject to limited use licenses from The Broad Institute and ERS Genomics Limited, and is developed with patented technology. For full details of the limited use licenses and relevant patents please refer to our limited use license and patent pages.

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.

Supplementary information

This supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.

HDAC2 or Histone Deacetylase 2 is an important enzyme that plays a role in chromatin remodeling and gene expression regulation. It removes acetyl groups from histone tails allowing chromatin to condense and silencing gene expression. HDAC2 has a molecular weight of approximately 55 kDa. It is expressed in various tissues including brain heart and skeletal muscles indicating its importance in different physiological areas. HDAC2 proteins are often studied using methods like HDAC2 ELISA and HDAC2 anticuero in research settings.
Biological function summary

HDAC2 is involved in cell cycle regulation and differentiation. It is part of the co-repressor complex and interacts with other proteins such as Sin3 and NuRD to repress transcription. These interactions are vital for maintaining normal cellular functions and ensuring proper response to external signals. This protein is also connected to HEK293T cells which are a common model in scientific studies due to their robust expression of proteins like HDAC2.

Pathways

HDAC2 participates in the regulation of transcriptional activity and cellular stress response. It is an important player in the histone modification pathway interacting with proteins such as HDAC1 and transcriptional regulators like REST. HDAC2 is also linked with the Notch signaling pathway which is essential for cell fate decisions. These pathways highlight its role in both maintaining cellular homeostasis and adapting to changes in the cellular environment.

HDAC2 has a significant connection to neurodegenerative diseases and various cancers. Alzheimer's disease for instance shows altered expression levels of HDAC2 affecting synaptic plasticity and memory formation. In cancer HDAC2 interacts with oncogenic proteins such as p53 influencing tumor progression and metastasis. Monitoring HDAC2 levels and activity could provide insights into disease mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets.
