Human NFAT-Luciferase Reporter Recombinant Cell Line, Jurkat

CAT#: IOC-LX157
Product Type: Cell
Organism: Human
Description
Creative Biolabs has developed several immune checkpoint stable cell Lines expressing the most popular immune checkpoints to accelerate clients' immunotherapy discovery and clinical translation. The NFAT Reporter - Jurkat Cell Line contains a firefly luciferase gene under the control of the NFAT response element stably integrated into Jurkat cells. This cell line has been validated for response to thapsigargin, ionomycin, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), and anti-CD3 Ab, and has also been validated for T cell activation. Which can be used in binding assays and functional assay.
Features
Stable cell lines for increased reliability and reproducibility;
Protein expression at the cell surface validated by FACS or WB;
Applications
• Monitor intracellular calcium levels.
• Screen for activators or inhibitors of PKC/ Ca2+ pathway.
• Screen for agonists or antagonists of T cell receptors and co-inhibitors.
• Control for immune checkpoint NFAT reporter cell lines.

Common Name
NFAT-Luciferase Reporter
Background
The nuclear factor of activator T cells (NFAT) family of transcription factors plays an important role in immune response. T cell activation through the T cell synapse results in calcium influx. Increased intracellular calcium levels activate the calcium-sensitive phosphatase, calcineurin, which rapidly dephosphorylates the serine-rich region (SRR) and SP-repeats in the amino termini of NFAT proteins. This results in a conformational change that exposes a nuclear localization signal promoting NFAT nuclear import. In the nucleus, NFAT proteins cooperate with other proteins to bind to DNA.

Sterility Testing
Creative Biolabs provides sterility testing in accordance with USP and EP regulations. All of our sterility testing is performed in an isolator or clean room environments. The cell line has been screened using the membrane filtration testing methods to confirm the absence of aerobic, anaerobic and fungi microorganisms.
Identity Testing
Identity testing is required for newly established cell lines. Isoenzyme analysis is used to confirm the identity of the species of a cell line. Alternative methods for identity testing include DNA fingerprinting, STR analysis and karyology.
Virological Safety Testing
A broad range of viruses is susceptible to affecting human cell lines. We can provide in vivo/vitro virus safety assays by utilizing various animal systems. These viruses include: adventitious viruses, bovine viruses, human and simian viruses, porcine viruses, retrovirus and rodent viruses.
Genetic Stability Testing
We perform cell genetic stability studies under ICH guidelines. We can provide guidance on the appropriate testing program upon your requirements.
Mycoplasma Testing
The cell line has been screened using the luciferase based mycoplasma detection kit to confirm the absence of mycoplasma species.
Shipping
