A549 dual ko rig 1

Manufactured by InvivoGen

The A549-Dual™ KO-RIG-I is a human alveolar basal epithelial cell line. It is genetically engineered to lack the RIG-I (retinoic acid-inducible gene I) receptor, which is a key sensor of viral RNA. This cell line can be used for the study of the innate immune response to viral infections.

HEp-2 (ATCC CCL-23) and A549 cells (ATCC CCL-185) were purchased from the American Type Culture Collection. A549-Dual, A549-Dual KO-RIG-I, A549-Dual KO-MDA5, and A549-Dual KO-MAVS-knockout cells were purchased from InvivoGen (San Diego, CA), and were supplemented with Normocin (100 μg ml−1), blasticidin (10 μg ml−1) and zeocin (100 μg ml−1). The wild type U2OS cells and METTL3-knockdown U2OS cell lines were generous gifts from Dr. Yang Shi (Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA). All cell lines were grown in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM; Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA) supplemented with 10% FBS and were confirmed free from mycoplasma by the LookOut Mycoplasma PCR Detection Kit (Sigma, St. Louis, MO). Recombinant RSV (rgRSV) strain A2 expressed GFP as the first gene, and rgRSV-ΔG was derived from rgRSV by deletion of the G gene [76 (link),77 (link)].

Vero E6 cells (ATCC CRL-1586), A549 cells (ATCC CCL-185), and THP-1 (ATCC TIB-202) were purchased from the American Type Culture Collection (Manassas, VA). A549-Dual™, A549-Dual™ KO-RIG-I, A549-Dual™ KO-MDA5, and A549-Dual™ KO-MAVS knockout cells were purchased from InvivoGen (San Diego, CA). BHK-SR19-T7 cells were kindly provided by Apath, LLC, Brooklyn, NY. All cell lines were grown in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM; Life Technologies) supplemented with 10% FBS. The medium for the BHK-SR19-T7 cells was supplemented with 10 μg/ml puromycin (Life Technologies) during every other passage to select for T7 polymerase-expressing cells. A549-Dual™ and knockout cell lines were supplemented with Normocin™ (100 μg/ml), blasticidin (10 μg/ml) and Zeocin™ (100 μg/ml). HeLa cells overexpressing the empty vector (pPB-CAG), YTHDF1, YTHDF2, or YTHDF3 were maintained in DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS and 1 µg/ml of puromycin every passage to select for YTHDF1-3 overexpressing cells. All cell lines used in this study were free of mycoplasma, as confirmed by the LookOut Mycoplasma PCR Detection Kit (Sigma). Cell lines were authenticated by the ATCC or InvivoGen.

A549 cells (ATCC; CCL-185), A549ACE2 cells (67 (link)), HEK-293T cells (ATCC; CRL-3216), HEK-293T-NoDice cells (68 (link)), HeLa cells (ATCC; CCL-2), Vero E6 cells (ATCC; CRL-1586), BHK-21 cells (ATCC; CCL-10), and MDCK cells (ATCC; CCL-34) were all maintained in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle medium (DMEM) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS). A549-Dual, A549-Dual-KO-MAVS, A549-Dual-KO-MDA5, and A549-Dual-KO-RIG-I cells were acquired from InvivoGen and maintained in DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS, 100 μg/ml Normocin, 10 μg/ml blasticidin, and 100 μg/ml zeocin. All cells were cultured at 37°C and 5% CO2.

Culturing A549 Dual-reporter Cell Lines

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A549-Dual and A549-Dual RIG-I KO (InvivoGen, Ref. a549d-nfis or a549d-korigi, San Diego, California, U.S.A.) were cultured with high glucose Dulbecco’s Modified Eagles Medium containing 1% GlutaMAX™ (DMEM, Gibco™, ThermoFisher, Ref. 10566016) and supplemented with 10 μg/mL Blasticidin (InvivoGen, Ref. ant-bl-05), 100 μg/mL Zeocin (InvivoGen, Ref. ant-zn-05), 10% v/v heat inactivated Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS, Gibco™, ThermoFisher, Ref. 10099141). Proliferative cultures were incubated at 37°C in a humidified 5% CO2 incubator and subculture carried out twice a week by washing the cell monolayers with DPBS followed by addition of accutase solution (Gibco™, ThermoFisher, Ref. A1110501) and incubation at 37°C until the cells detached. Accutase was inactivated by the addition of growth medium before seeding 1.0.106 cells into fresh T175 or T75 flasks. Cell numbers and viability were assessed by Trypan Blue staining (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Ref. T10282) using Countess 2 (Invitrogen, Ref. AMQAX1000).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
