K562

Human

K562 cells are of the erythroleukemia type, and the cell line is derived from a 53-year-old female chronic myelogenous leukemia patient in blast crisis. The cells are non-adherent and rounded, are positive for the bcr:abl fusion gene, and bear some proteomic resemblance to both undifferentiated granulocytes and erythrocytes.

In Vitro RNA Expression Analysis Assay (Cap Analysis)

K562-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.
