Tool Details
- Tool name: Caki-2 DNMT3A KO cell line
- Alternate names: TBRS, HESJAS
- Tool type: Cell Lines
- Tool sub-type: Continuous
- Parental cell line: Clear cell renal cell carcinoma cell line (Caki-2)
- Organism: Human
- Tissue: Kidney
- Model: Knock-Out
- Conditional: No
- Description: Experimental ablation of DNMT3A gene expression using the CRISPR/Cas9 system renders Caki-2-DNMT3A knockout cells a valuable tool to investigate the role of DNA methylation in processes such as cell differentiation or cancer progression.
