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

Rab20 also known as Ras-related protein Rab-20 is a small GTPase belonging to the Rab protein family. Rab20 has a molecular mass of approximately 25 kDa. It is expressed across a variety of tissues with notable presence in the kidney placenta and heart. Rab20's mechanical role involves the regulation of vesicular trafficking operating as a molecular switch by cycling between an active GTP-bound state and an inactive GDP-bound state.
Biological function summary

Rab20 regulates intracellular membrane transport processes. It is involved in endocytic and exocytic transport pathways by controlling vesicle formation movement and fusion. Rab20 participates in the recycling of endosomes contributing to the homeostasis of cellular components. Rab20 is also involved in a complex with other Rab proteins modulating their specific functions in vesicle trafficking.

Pathways

Rab20 plays a role in the endocytic pathway specifically in the recycling endosome pathway where it acts alongside proteins such as Rab11. Rab20 supports the retrieval and recycling of receptors from endosomes back to the plasma membrane. Related to this function Rab20 associates with the exocytic pathway ensuring proper transport of cargo proteins from the Golgi apparatus to the cell surface.

Rab20 has associations with cancer progression and hepatocellular carcinoma. It exhibits altered expression levels in tumors suggesting a role in cell proliferation and metastasis. Furthermore Rab20 may influence autophagic processes in cells impacting conditions such as neurodegenerative disorders. In cancer pathology Rab20 interacts with other proteins such as Ras regulating cell growth and survival pathways.
