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.
- Do not allow the cell density to exceed 7x104 cells/cm2.
- Culture medium
- F-12K + 10% FBS
- Cryopreservation medium
- Cell Freezing Medium-DMSO Serum free media, contains 8.7% DMSO in MEM supplemented with methyl cellulose.
Storage

- Activity summary
IFIT3 also known as P60 is a member of the IFIT (Interferon-Induced Proteins with Tetratricopeptide Repeats) family of proteins. With a molecular mass of approximately 60 kDa IFIT3 is part of the antiviral response system. This protein is expressed in various tissues and is highly inducible by type I interferons. It functions to inhibit viral replication by interacting with viral RNA. The structure of IFIT3 includes tetratricopeptide repeat motifs which facilitate its role in protein-protein interactions.
- Biological function summary
IFIT3 plays a major role in the immune response against viral infections. The protein forms complexes with other IFIT family members like IFIT1 and IFIT2 to enhance antiviral efficacy. IFIT3 binds to foreign RNA lacking proper cap structures blocking viral protein synthesis. The protein's actions help strengthen the innate immune system and further control the spread of viral pathogens. IFIT3 also modulates cellular functions by engaging with signaling pathways that regulate inflammation and immune defense.
- Pathways
IFIT3 integrates into important signaling networks such as the interferon-mediated signal transduction pathway and the JAK-STAT signaling pathway. In these pathways IFIT3 along with related proteins like IRF3 and ISG15 helps amplify immune responses after detecting viral threats. Its involvement in these pathways ensures that antiviral states within cells are quickly established reducing viral survival and dissemination.
- Associated diseases and disorders
IFIT3 has significant implications for infection and cancer outcomes. In viral infections such as hepatitis C IFIT3 expression levels correlate with effective antiviral activity and prognosis. In cancer aberrant IFIT3 expression can influence tumorigenesis and impact treatment responses. Collaborating with proteins such as STAT1 and p53 IFIT3 can affect pathways involved in cell proliferation and apoptosis linking immune responses to cancer progression and therapy resistance.
