CELL LINES

Contributor Information
- Name Julian Downward
- Institute The Francis Crick Institute
Tool Details
- Tool name: CT26 TTPKO cell line
- Alternate names: TTP
- Tool type: Cell Lines
- Tool sub-type: Continuous
- Parental cell line: CT26 ATCC-CRL-2638
- Organism: Mouse
- Disease: Cancer
- Model: Knock-Out
- Conditional: No
- Description: CRISPR/Cas tristetraprolin (TTP) Knock-out KRAS mutant colon carcinoma cell line. In some immunoresistant tumours, PD-L1 expression is upregulated by RAS activation. Via the MEK pathway, the MK2 kinase phosporylates and inhibits TTP, which negatively regulates PD-L1 expression. PD-L1 is a therapeutic target to check the immune evasion mechanism of some cancers. CRISPR edited CT26 cells.
- Research area: Cancer; Cell Cycle; Cell Signaling & Signal Transduction
- Production details: CRISPR/Cas TTP Knock-out KRAS mutant colon carcinoma cell line.Knock Out of functional TTP was confirmed by Western blot. CompleteZfp36 allele disruption was confirmed by TOPO-TA cloning followed bysequencing.Mouse Zfp36 was targeted with gRNA sequenceGTCATGGCTCATCGACTGGAGG, using U6gRNA-Cas9-2A-GFP
