Homozygote, 253 bp deletion
Reactivity data
Product details
Recommended control: Human wild-type HEK293T cell line (ab282205). 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.
Cryopreservation cell medium: Cell Freezing Medium-DMSO Serum free media, contains 8.7% DMSO in MEM supplemented with methyl cellulose.
Culture medium: EMEM + 10% FBS
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.
- 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. Based on cell count, seed cells in an appropriate cell culture flask at a density of 2x104cells/cm2. Seeding density is given as a guide only and should be scaled to align with individual lab schedules.
4. Incubate the culture at 37°C incubator with 5% CO2. 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.
- A partial media change 24 hours prior to subculture may be helpful to encourage growth, if required.
- Cells should be passaged when they have achieved 80-90% confluence.
We will provide viable cells that proliferate on revival.

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.

Biological function summary
VDAC2 plays significant roles beyond mere ion transport. It interacts with proteins involved in apoptosis such as Bcl-2 family proteins. Although not part of a larger complex its influence on the structure and permeability of the outer mitochondrial membrane impacts several cellular processes. The regulation of apoptosis by VDAC2 is key for cellular homeostasis and response to stress signals highlighting its role in maintaining normal cellular functions.
Pathways
Several cellular processes include VDAC2's role in apoptosis and energy metabolism. VDAC2 interacts with the intrinsic pathway of apoptosis in close association with proteins like Bax and Bak where it influences the release of cytochrome c from mitochondria. Additionally VDAC2 has a role in ATP transport and metabolic flux integral to the bioenergetics pathways by working with adenine nucleotide translocase (ANT) as part of the exchange of ATP and ADP.
