HepG2

Human

Hep G2 is an immortal cell line which was derived in 1975 from the liver tissue of a 15-year-old Caucasian male from Argentina with a well-differentiated hepatocellular carcinoma. These cells are epithelial in morphology, have a modal chromosome number of 55, and are not tumorigenic in nude mice.

HepG2-cell based In Vitro RNA Expression Analysis Assay (Cap Analysis)

Cap analysis gene expression involves the sequencing of PCR-amplified cDNA tags obtained from the 5' end of mRNA. For the identification of starting sites of transcription, the cap analysis gene expression technique has become a useful platform.

Gene and Protein Expression Assays

Following transcription, primary transcript RNA is converted into mature RNA by post-transcriptional modifications. Post-transcriptional modification includes three major steps namely the addition of a 5'cap, addition of a 3'polyadenylation tail and RNA splicing. Stability of RNA has been considered as very important for gene expression and proteins at the post-transcriptional level.
