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

TMEM106C also known as Transmembrane Protein 106C is a protein that plays a role in cellular processes. It has a molecular mass of approximately 29 kDa. This protein is generally observed to be expressed in a variety of tissues but specific expression patterns may depend on the cellular context and physiological conditions. TMEM106C localizes mainly to the cell membrane which suggests its involvement in transmembrane signaling or transport mechanisms.
Biological function summary

The protein can participate in processes related to cellular homeostasis and signaling pathways. Although it is not widely characterized as part of a larger complex the protein likely interacts with other membrane-associated proteins to mediate its effects. Potential biological activities may include regulatory mechanisms that ensure proper cellular function and communication.

Pathways

TMEM106C interacts with components involved in cellular signaling and communication pathways. It may be involved in pathways like the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway which is important for regulating cell cycle and survival. TMEM106C may also share relationships with proteins such as Akt and PI3K which are central to these pathways contributing to proliferative and survival signaling cascades.

TMEM106C is associated with neurodegenerative and metabolic conditions. For instance alterations in its expression or function might play a role in Alzheimer's disease where other proteins like tau are also involved. Additionally metabolic disorders such as diabetes may also highlight the role of TMEM106C through its connection with insulin signaling-related pathways influencing glucose metabolism and homeostasis.
