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.
Cryopreservation medium
Cell Freezing Medium-DMSO Serum free media, contains 8.7% DMSO in MEM supplemented with methyl cellulose.

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 A549 cell line (Human wild-type A549 cell line ab288558). 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.

We will provide viable cells that proliferate on revival.

Activity summary

NNOS also known as nitric oxide synthase 1 or NOS1 is a critical enzyme in the nervous system. It catalyzes the production of nitric oxide from L-arginine. This enzyme weighing approximately 160 kDa is expressed in neurons and you can find it in regions like the brain and spinal cord. Notably nNOS is part of the NOS family which also includes eNOS and iNOS but its primary function is in neuronal tissues.

Biological function summary

NNOS plays a significant role in neurotransmission and neurovascular regulation. As a part of protein complexes nNOS closely interacts with other signaling molecules to modulate neuronal communication. The production of nitric oxide by nNOS acts as a neurotransmitter influencing brain functions such as synaptic plasticity and memory formation. Additionally due to its role in neuronal activity antibodies like anti-neuronal antibodies can have interactions that can be studied using various assays including the NOS assay.

Pathways

NNOS serves essential roles within the neuronal nitric oxide signaling pathway and the glutamatergic signaling pathway. In these contexts nNOS associates with proteins involved in cell signaling such as calmodulin which regulates its activity. By participating in these pathways nNOS contributes to the regulation of vascular tone and synaptic transmission linking it to neurological processes and supporting neuronal communication.

Associated diseases and disorders

NNOS shows significant connections to neurological disorders and cardiovascular diseases. In conditions like stroke and neurodegenerative diseases dysregulation of nNOS activity leads to excessive production of nitric oxide which can result in oxidative stress and neuronal damage. Furthermore its relation with eNOS in the cardiovascular system influences vascular function making it a critical player in hypertension studies. Understanding nNOS interactions through diseases highlights the possibility of targeted treatments using neuronal antibodies and anti-neuronal antibodies against specific pathways.
