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
- Dry Ice

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 (ab271142). 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.

Subculture guidelines:
• All seeding densities should be based on cell counts gained by established methods.
• A guide seeding density of 2x10E4 cells/cm2 is recommended.
• 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
- This supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.
- Activity summary
Tec also known as Tec protein tyrosine kinase functions as a non-receptor tyrosine kinase involved in signal transduction. Its molecular mass is approximately 72 kDa. Tec is expressed predominantly in hematopoietic cells such as B cells T cells and myeloid lineage cells. This protein plays a significant role in mediating cellular communication by transferring phosphate groups from ATP to specific tyrosine residues on target proteins.
- Biological function summary
Tec influences cellular processes like proliferation differentiation and survival. Tec belongs to the Tec kinase family which also includes Btk Itk Rlk and Bmx. Though Tec does not form permanent complexes it interacts dynamically with various signaling proteins. These interactions allow Tec to modulate immune cell development and function significantly impacting the adaptive immune response.
- Pathways
Tec is an integral part of the B-cell receptor (BCR) signaling pathway and the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. Upon activation of BCR Tec aids in signal propagation leading to B cell activation and proliferation. Tec operates synergistically with proteins like Src family kinases leading to the activation of downstream signaling pathways. The protein also facilitates the Akt pathway which controls cell growth and survival by interacting with phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K).
- Associated diseases and disorders
Tec links to immunodeficiencies and cancers such as leukemia. Dysfunctional Tec signaling can impair immune responses contributing to conditions like X-linked agammaglobulinemia a disorder often connected to mutations in Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk). Overactive Tec signaling may promote leukemogenesis linking Tec to leukemias where it cooperates with proteins such as STAT5 which is involved in cell growth and survival pathways.
