TCR Knockout Jurkat Cell Line

Products from BPS Bioscience require a minimum order value above 400€

Applications: Use as a control when generating or charaterizing CAR-T Cells 

Background: The T-Cell Receptor (TCR) is found on the surface of T cells and is responsible for recognizing antigens bound to MHC (Major Histocompatibility Complex) molecules. Engagement of the TCR initiates downstream NFAT signaling resulting in T cell activation. The TCR consists of a heterodimer of two different protein chains, of which the alpha (α) and beta (β) chains are the predominant chains. CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing was utilized to remove the TRAC (T-Cell Receptor Alpha Constant) and TRBC1 (T-Cell Receptor Beta Constant 1) regions of the α and β chains, resulting in a loss of TCR expression.

Description: The TCR Knockout Jurkat cell line was generated by CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing to remove the TRAC (T-Cell Receptor Alpha Constant) and TRBC1 (T-Cell Receptor Beta Constant 1) domains of the TCRα and β chains.

Host Cell Line: Jurkat (clone E6-1), human T lymphoblast, suspension

Mycoplasma Testing: The cell line has been screened to confirm the absence of Mycoplasma species.

Storage Stability: Cells are shipped in dry ice and should immediately be thawed or stored in liquid nitrogen upon receipt. Do not use a -80°C freezer for long term storage. 

Supplied As: Each vial contains 2 x 10⁶ cells in 1 ml of cell freezing medium (BPS Bioscience #79796)

Warnings: Avoid freeze/thaw cycles.

Biosafety Level: BSL-1
