Descrição

Descrição geral

This product was derived from ATCC Cat. No. HTB-96.
ACTB (actin beta) gene codes for β-actin. It is a cytoskeletal housekeeping protein. It is present in the cytoplasm. The ACTB gene is located on human chromosome 7p22.1. GFP (green fluorescent protein) is a major reporter protein that has fluorescence properties. It can fluoresce without the help of any cofactors or substrates except for oxygen.

U2OS GFP-ACTB are osteosarcoma, epithelial cells, from a human caucasian female (aged 15 years), with a GFP-tagged modification.

Aplicação

This product is a human U2OS cell line in which the genomic ACTB gene has been endogenously tagged with a Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) gene using CompoZr^® Zinc Finger Nuclease technology. Integration resulted in endogenous expression of the fusion protein in which GFP is attached to the N-terminus of actin. Fluorescence imaging shows that the actin can polymerize to form the characteristic pattern of actin filaments. This stable cell line was expanded from a single clone. The target′s gene regulation and corresponding protein function are preserved in contrast to cell lines with overexpression via an exogenous promoter.

Ações bioquímicas/fisiológicas

β-Actin modulates cell growth, migration and the G-actin pool. Mutations in ACTB leads to pleiotropic developmental disorder. GFP (green fluorescent protein) is used for quantitative analysis.

Actin β (ACTB) is an abundant cytoskeletal housekeeping protein. The protein, expressed in the nucleus, controls gene expression, cell division and proliferation. ACTB is generally used as a reference gene in measuring expression levels in tumors.
