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.

Activity summary

TRM1 also known as transfer RNA methyltransferase 1 is an enzyme responsible for methylating the N2 position of guanine in tRNA molecules. It has a molecular mass of approximately 49 kDa. TRM1 mostly resides in the mitochondria but can also be found in the cytoplasm. Its presence ensures proper methylation of tRNA influencing efficient and accurate protein translation.

Biological function summary

The methylation activity of TRM1 plays a role in maintaining the stability and function of tRNA molecules. As part of the cellular machinery TRM1 does not function alone; it often works together with other tRNA-modifying enzymes to ensure the fidelity of protein synthesis. This modification protects tRNA's structure facilitates proper folding and enhances interaction with ribosomal components.

Pathways

TRM1 functions significantly impact protein synthesis pathways. The enzyme is instrumental in the translation process by ensuring that tRNA molecules are correctly modified for protein assembly. TRM1 operates alongside other proteins such as TRM10 and TRMT5 within these modification pathways influencing the efficiency and accuracy of translation. It supports processes like tRNA maturation and ribosomal activity.

Associated diseases and disorders

Alterations in TRM1 activity can relate to mitochondrial pathologies. Mutations or deficiencies in TRM1 can disrupt mitochondrial function leading to disorders such as mitochondrial myopathy. Research also connects TRM1 aberrations to neurodegenerative diseases where it may interact with proteins like PINK1 highlighting its role in neuroprotective responses. The efficiency of TRM1 in performing its tasks is vital as any dysfunction can result in profound cellular consequences affecting human health.

    Western blot - Human TRMT1 (TRM1) knockout HEK-293T cell line (ab266705)

    False colour image of Western blot: Anti-TRM1 antibody - C-terminal staining at 1/1000 dilution, shown in green; Mouse anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] (Anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] - Loading Control ab8245) loading control staining at 1/20000 dilution, shown in red. In Western blot, Anti-TRM1 antibody - C-terminal ab185997 was shown to bind specifically to TRM1. A band was observed at 75 kDa in wild-type HEK-293T cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in Trmt1 knockout cell line ab266705 (knockout cell lysate Human TRMT1 (TRM1) knockout HEK-293T cell lysate ab258252). To generate this image, wild-type and Trmt1 knockout HEK-293T cell lysates were analysed. First, samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in 3 % milk in TBS-0.1 % Tween® 20 (TBS-T) before incubation with primary antibodies overnight at 4 °C. Blots were washed four times in TBS-T, incubated with secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature, washed again four times then imaged. Secondary antibodies used were Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed (Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preadsorbed ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed (Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preadsorbed ab216776) at 1/20000 dilution.
