Product Description
RKO Cell Line | EP-CL-0196 | Elabscience
Background: RKO cells contain wild-type p53 but lack endogenous human thyroid receptor nuclear receptor(h-TRbeta1). The level of p53 protein is higher in RKO cells than in RKO-E6 cells. The RKO cell line is the parental cell line(isogenic) of RKO-E6 and RKO-A545-1.
Species: Homo sapiens, Human
Age: N/A
Tissue: Colon
Morphology: Epithelial
Growth Properties: Adherent
Organism: Homo sapiens, Human
Species Cell: Human
application: It can be used as the control cell line for investigating the effects of p53 and gadd45 on cellular parameters.
Doubling Time: N/A
Biosafety: 1
Subculturing: Remove and discard culture medium. Briefly rinse the cell layer with DPBS solution to remove all traces of serum that contains trypsin inhibitor. Add 1.0 to 2.0 mL of Trypsin-EDTA solution to flask and observe cells under an inverted microscope until cell layer is dispersed (usually within 2 to 3 minutes). Cells that are difficult to detach may be placed at 37°C to facilitate dispersal. Add 4.0 to 6.0 mL of complete growth medium and aspirate cells by gently pipetting. Add appropriate aliquots of the cell suspension to new culture vessels.
Ratio: 1:2-1:4
Renewal: Every 2 to 3 days
