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.

- Activity summary
IFIT5 also known as Interferon-induced protein with tetratricopeptide repeats 5 is a protein with a molecular mass of approximately 56 kDa. This protein is expressed mainly in the cytoplasm where it functions by specifically binding to single-stranded RNAs lacking 2'-O-methylation at their 5'-cap structure. This recognition allows IFIT5 to distinguish self from non-self RNA an important element in immune defense mechanisms. Its ability to sense and bind to viral RNA makes it an important player in the host's innate immune response.
- Biological function summary
IFIT5 is involved in antiviral defense and immune response regulation. It does not function as part of a multi-protein complex but interacts with various signaling molecules to amplify immune responses. By selectively binding to foreign RNA IFIT5 can inhibit viral replication and modulate type I interferon signaling pathways. It plays a significant role in restricting viral protein synthesis giving the host organism time to mount an adaptive immune response.
- Pathways
IFIT5 is closely associated with the interferon signaling pathway and the innate immune response pathway. Through its interactions it affects the Jak-STAT signaling pathway which is important for the induction of antiviral states in cells. IFIT5 also has functional links with other proteins such as RIG-I an important sensor in the detection of viral RNAs. Together they provide a robust early immune defense by facilitating cytokine production and ensuring rapid response to infections.
- Associated diseases and disorders
IFIT5 has been linked to viral infections and certain inflammatory conditions. Its role in antiviral defense connects it to diseases such as hepatitis C where the protein's influence on interferon action can affect viral persistence and patient response to treatment. Additionally IFIT5 interaction with proteins like PKR moves it to the context of autoimmune disorders where overactive or dysregulated immune responses can lead to chronic inflammation and tissue damage.
