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.
Storage
- Shipped at conditions

Notes
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 HeLa cell line (ab255448). 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.

• Cells should be passaged when they have achieved 80-90% confluence.
• Do not allow the cell density to exceed 7x10E4 cells/cm2.
We will provide viable cells that proliferate on revival.

Supplementary info

- Activity summary
NDUFC2 also known as NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase subunit C2 is a protein component of the mitochondrial complex I. It has a molecular mass of approximately 14.4 kDa. This protein is expressed within the mitochondria of various tissues with significant expression observed in high energy-demanding tissues such as the brain heart and muscles. NDUFC2 does not have a catalytic role but contributes to the structural stability of complex I.
- Biological function summary
NDUFC2 plays a role as part of the mitochondrial respiratory chain complex I also known as NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase. This complex catalyzes the initial step of electron transport helping transfer electrons from NADH to ubiquinone. By contributing to this process NDUFC2 supports ATP production through oxidative phosphorylation which is essential for cellular energy metabolism. Being part of such a complex structure NDUFC2 interacts closely with other subunits of complex I.
- Pathways
NDUFC2 involves itself in the oxidative phosphorylation and the citric acid cycle. These pathways are vital for energy conversion and metabolic processes. Within oxidative phosphorylation NDUFC2 relates to proteins such as NDUFB10 and NDUFS1 which are additional components of complex I. This protein along with its complex counterparts ensures efficient electron transport and ATP synthesis.
- Associated diseases and disorders
NDUFC2 associates with mitochondrial disorders that stem from complex I deficiencies. Such diseases include Leigh syndrome a severe neurological disorder and mitochondrial encephalomyopathy. Interactions with other complex I proteins like NDUFS3 and NDUFV1 highlight the role of NDUFC2 in these conditions. Mutations or deficiencies in NDUFC2 can impact cellular energy metabolism contributing to the pathophysiology of these disorders.
