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.

Biological function summary
MNK2 modulates stress responses by influencing protein synthesis. It is an integral component of the mRNA translation machinery. MNK2 phosphorylates the eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E (eIF4E) a process that is fundamental for the translation of specific mRNAs. By regulating eIF4E activity MNK2 helps to control the translation of mRNAs involved in stress response and cellular growth.
Pathways
MNK2 is significantly involved in the MAPK signaling pathway and plays a role in the response to cellular stress and growth signals. This pathway includes MAP kinases like ERK which activate MNK2. Through its interaction with eIF4E MNK2 facilitates the synthesis of proteins that are important for cell survival and proliferation in response to extracellular signals. Its action links upstream signaling events influenced by MAP kinases to downstream processes affecting cell growth and stress response.
