MDA-MB-231 BRE-Luc/TK Renilla cell line
Invented by Caroline Hill at The Francis Crick Institute
Catalogue Number | 156440 |
Antigen/Gene or Protein Targets | Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signalling |
Parental Line | HEK293T cell line |
Host | Human |
Tissue | Kidney |
Model | Reporter |
Relevance | The human embryo kidney cell line HEK293T modified for use as a reporter cell line for bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signalling. The cell line stably expresses BMP responsive element (BRE)-Luciferase. The cell line also contains a Renilla reporter driven by the thymidine kinase (TK) promoter to act as an internal control. BMP is a transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) superfamily member. |
Production Details |
Made by transfecting the human embryo kidney cell line HEK293T with BRE-Luciferase plasmid, TK Renilla plasmid and pRetroSuper for puromycin resistance. Pool |
Conditional Description | Luciferase is expressed in the presence of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signalling |
Research Area | Cancer, Cell Signaling & Signal Transduction, Developmental Biology |
Recommended Growing Conditions | Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM) containing 10% fetal calf serum (FCS) |
