Htert rpe1 cells

Manufactured by RIKEN BioResource Center

HTERT-RPE1 cells are an immortalized human retinal pigment epithelial cell line. They are derived from primary human retinal pigment epithelial cells that have been genetically engineered to express the human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) gene, which extends their lifespan in culture.

Expression vectors for subunits of the IFT-A and IFT-B complexes and heterotrimeric kinesin-II used in this study are listed in Supplemental Table S1; most of them were constructed in our previous studies (Katoh et al., 2016 (link); Hirano et al., 2017 (link); Funabashi et al., 2018 (link)). The antibodies used in this study are listed in Supplemental Table S2. GST-tagged anti-GFP Nb (Katoh et al., 2015 (link)) and anti-mCherry Nb (the LaM-2 version) (Ishida et al., 2021 (link)) prebound to Glutathione Sepharose 4B beads (GE Healthcare) were prepared as described previously. SAG and Polyethylenimine Max were purchased from Enzo Life Sciences and Polysciences, respectively. HEK293T cells (RBC2202) and hTERT-RPE1 cells (CRL-4000) were obtained from the RIKEN BioResource Research Center and the American Type Culture Collection, respectively.

cDNAs for human CFAP20 (NM_013242.3) and FAM149B1 (NM_173348.2) were obtained from a cDNA library by PCR amplification. Human ICK cDNA was kindly provided by Takahisa Furukawa (Osaka University) (Chaya et al., 2014 (link)). Expression vectors for BROMI, CFAP20, FAM149B1, CCRK, and ICK and their deletion and point mutants and vectors for the production of lentiviruses expressing them are listed in Supplemental Table S1. Several of the vectors were constructed in our previous studies (Hamada et al., 2018 (link); Nakamura et al., 2020 (link); Noguchi et al., 2021 (link)). Antibodies used in this study are listed in Supplemental Table S2. GST-tagged anti-GFP Nb and anti-mChe Nb (the LaM-2 version) prebound to glutathione–Sepharose 4B beads were prepared as described previously (Katoh et al., 2015 (link); Katoh et al., 2018 (link); Ishida et al., 2021 (link)). SAG and Polyethylenimine Max were purchased from Enzo Life Sciences and Polysciences, respectively. HEK293T cells and hTERT-RPE1 cells were obtained from RIKEN BioResource Research Center (Catalogue No. RBC2202) and American Type Culture Collection (Catalogue No. CRL-4000), respectively.

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.
