Applications: The NF-κB-luciferase/Jurkat cell line is suitable for monitoring the activity of NF-kB signaling in response to stimulant, and establishing cell-based screens for inhibitors that target specific NF-κB stimulating molecules.
Description: NF-κB luciferase reporter construct is stably integrated into the genome of Jurkat T- cells. The firefly luciferase gene is controlled by 4 copies of NF-kB response element located upstream of the TATA promoter. Following activation by stimulants, endogenous NF-κB transcription factors bind to the DNA response elements to induce transcription of the luciferase gene.
Format: Each vial contains ~2 x 10^6 cells in 1mL of 10% DMSO in FBS.
Host Cell Line: Jurkat
Mycoplasma Testing: This cell line has been screened using the MycoAlert™ Mycoplasma Detection Kit (Cat. No. LT07-118) to confirm the absence of Mycoplasma contamination. MycoAlert Assay Control Set (Cat. No. LT07-518) was used as a positive control.
Storage Stability: Store in liquid nitrogen immediately upon receipt.
Warnings: Avoid freeze/thaw cycles.
Biosafety Level: BSL-1
