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.

Supplementary information

PTS/PTPS also known as 6-pyruvoyltetrahydropterin synthase and sepiapterin reductase is an enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4). Its molecular weight is approximately 23 kDa. The enzyme is expressed in various tissues including the liver kidney and brain. The enzyme catalyzes a step in the conversion of 78-dihydroneopterin triphosphate to 6-pyruvoyl tetrahydropterin which is an important step in the BH4 production pathway.
Biological function summary

PTS/PTPS plays a significant role in neurotransmitter synthesis and regulation. BH4 acts as a cofactor for several hydroxylase enzymes these enzymes include phenylalanine hydroxylase tyrosine hydroxylase and tryptophan hydroxylase. PTS/PTPS contributes to the production of neurotransmitters like dopamine serotonin and nitric oxide through its role in the biosynthesis of BH4. The protein functions as a part of a complex that includes other biosynthetic enzymes involved in the same pathway.

Pathways

PTS/PTPS is essential in the pathways involved in neurotransmitter metabolism and amino acid hydroxylation. The enzyme is intimately associated with the phenylalanine tyrosine and tryptophan metabolic pathways. In these pathways it interacts with proteins such as phenylalanine hydroxylase and nitric oxide synthase supporting the conversion of amino acids into critical neurotransmitters and molecules for physiological processes.

PTS/PTPS dysfunction links to neurological conditions and metabolic disorders. Mutations or deficiencies in the enzyme are associated with hyperphenylalaninemia due to BH4 deficiency impacting phenylalanine metabolism and leading to severe neurological symptoms. Another related disorder is dystonia a movement disorder where altered dopamine biosynthesis occurs. The interactions with enzymes like phenylalanine hydroxylase become disrupted further influencing the disease mechanisms and contributing to symptoms.
