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.

- Activity summary
Lamin B2 also referred to as 'ln43' or 'lmnB2' is a lamin molecule with a molecular weight of approximately 66 kDa. It is an important component of the nuclear lamina an essential structure that provides mechanical support to the nuclear envelope. Lamin B2 is expressed in most cell types and is particularly abundant in cells with high proliferative capacity such as those in the fetal brain and liver. The protein is encoded by the LMNB2 gene and functions as an integral part of the nuclear envelope's architecture by interacting with other nuclear proteins.
- Biological function summary
Lamin B2 plays a critical role in maintaining nuclear stability and chromatin organization. It is a part of a larger complex that includes Lamin B and other nuclear matrix proteins. This structural matrix is important for chromosomal segregation during cell division ensuring that the genetic material is evenly distributed between daughter cells. Lamin B2 also facilitates processes such as DNA replication and repair by serving as a scaffold for anchoring various molecular components within the nucleus.
- Pathways
Lamin B2 is implicated in the regulation of the mitotic spindle formation during cell division which is a part of the cell cycle pathway. It interacts with proteins such as Lamin A and other nucleoporins contributing to the proper formation of nuclear pore complexes. Furthermore it plays a role in the pathway of apoptosis by modulating the release of factors from the nucleus that trigger cell death mechanisms. These interactions emphasize its importance in maintaining cellular function and integrity.
- Associated diseases and disorders
Alterations in Lamin B2 expression or function have been linked to certain types of cancer such as glioblastoma as well as to laminopathies. Laminopathies are a group of disorders caused by mutations in lamin proteins leading to defects in nuclear structure and function. Besides aberrant Lamin B2 is associated with neurological disorders through its interactions with other nuclear envelope protein components like Lamin A/C. These connections highlight the importance of Lamin B2 in both physiological processes and pathologies.
